I didn't say that. I evaluate products based on how well they help me
solve problems; not what company they come from.

The rest of your message is standard marketing crap. Yes, I was wrong,
Studio does support other source code control products including the one
I use, CVS. However, does it only me to use CVS through studio
effectively? No. Why? Because it was implemented using an API that
assumed source code control would be implemented with the check in and
out style of development. What do I do when I want to work with
concurrent development?
