	Well, the "other" used to be Ultimate Family Tree (UFT) [the last
version of the ROOTS product line, I believe]; but the 16-bit version
was bought up by the same company that owned Family Tree Maker -- and
subsequently discontinued rather than expend the effort to rewrite it
for 32-bit machines (in favor of FTM and its annual $$$ updates; even
though, at the time, UFT&TMG were fighting for top-billing on the
score-card, and FTM was at the bottom).

	I don't know if anyone else has created an event based system.
TMG4.0d (16-bit) was heavily promoted to the abandoned UFT folks. TMG
v5+ are now 32-bit (v7 being Vista compliant)
