I think Illustrator is going to be much harder to clone, since the 
functionality they have to replicate is enormous, and there doesn't seem to 
be much of a groundswell to code something up.

We are doing an Illustrator class in a few weeks, and I am amazed by this 
program. I didn't know all of the stuff it could do, and it actually requires 
skill to make it work.
