Excuse moi, But this is silly, if as is most likely true, teh price point was worked out to give a small profit ( we DO have to pay the programmers and people who answer phones, and utility bills etc) , yet you suggest one should *LOSE* money on each sale just to make a price point that keeps the "customers" happy??? Just how long do you think the
No. But I don't think they need to charge $70 anyway. And let's say they do. Give us a version without all the junk (i.e. 90 days of support + 6 manuals - 30 days and 1 manual was fine thank-you) for less.
and wrap the cds in what exactly? not to mention the manuals . have you considered just getting an upgrade every now and then?
Um. A jewel case? You know - the kind SuSE is now too cheap to include that actually protects the goods.
**Second. All those manuals. Never read 'em. Never will. Ditch those too.
I suspected as much.. seen the sydrome before... IT doesn't seem to occur to you that you are a bit self centered about this thing. That is also no way to run a grown up business!
This doesn't need to be the way every version is done. But I think there is lots of interest in this to replace the upgrade version. The upgrade simply isn't a good deal. Make a really good deal - it's a win/win situation. -Tim ----------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R. Butler Universal Networks Information Tech.
