I am not afraid of such comparisons. Competition can only improve
things and I would love to see a list of the things that PS7 does
better than GIMP. I am not claiming that GIMP is superiour, I would
vote for calling it GIMP-8.0 if that was the case.

The ball is rolling now and any further discussion about it is only
hurting GIMP's reputation.
