Unquestionably, that's where NB-NYC sees it's market. I see that as an
unnecessarily narrow focus -- shooting themselves in the foot. There are many
other potential types of user -- us, for example. Or former XyWriters, who are
legion. Or customization freaks.

Perhaps you could give us a short review, or mere list, of the primary
value-added features of NB (features not present in Xy4)? So that people can
evaluate their need for them?
