Glenn, I've never released this info cause I'm afraid DEC would get hyper, but when (then) DecSchedule was first released, a major customer complained about the price and the DecSchedule development team sent them Kronos with the note that that was what they had been using inhouse before finishing their product. The next two upgrades to Kronos had features quickly incorporated into DecSchedule. I found this to be flattering. After that, they were so far ahead of me that the similarities started to disappear.
