hmm, i think i see the point your trying to make, are you saying REBOL wont get you a job as its not powerful ?.
you know this for a fact as you have tryed it in a commercial setting and know its not up to the job?.
perhaps if you told this 'prospective employer' that REBOL is infact written by
Carl Sassenrath, (the guy that gave you the multitasking Amiga OS way back in 1985, so he knows a few things about small and innovative coding for the masses), not some unknown linux backroom coder in his spare time ( and there are some really innovative coders there, several came from the amiga platform days actually),and actually showed the boss what it
can do, then perhaps he/she might actually listen and learn.
remember the P2p
Morpheus app ?,back in 2001 when it was going to upgrade and bring out version 2x.
well REBOL was going to be that app until Morpheus got into serious finantial trouble and court action etc, is that a high enough commercial grade app for you to look again and ignore preconceptions perhaps...?

REBOL and Morpheus Join Forces
To create the largest programmable content network.
California, USA - October 31, 2001 - REBOL Technologies and StreamCast Networks (formerly MusicCity.com) today announced a partnership to create the world's largest peer-to-peer X Internet content network.
StreamCast, makers of Morpheus and next generation peer-to-peer content distribution networks, will base Morpheus 2.0 on REBOL's X Internet operating system (IOS) technology to provide interactive programmable content to more than 30 million users by the end of the year.
"This partnership catapults the Internet into a new era," says Carl Sassenrath, Founder and CTO of REBOL Technologies.
"It combines the ubiquity of StreamCast's advanced peer-to-peer distribution system with the power and operating system independence of REBOL's X Internet applications."

apart from that..., we are talking
powerful end user sandboxed apps and cgi ,that dont bring the main hardware down as its running from inside the IG ISP webserver cgi bin; to take from one of those US terms, 'empower the end users' options at no risk to the companys, as it were.
