I'd rather NOT get into a discussion of "MagiC vs. Geneva". Geneva is a
completely different concept than MagiC, therefore, both are very unique
in what they achieve. To compare both 1 on 1 is not only stupid, but
fruitless (since it is a never ending argument). Geneva was specifically
designed to meet a set of requirements (small size, excellent user
performance, older application compatibility) which are very different
than the design specs for MagiC.
