If you want to talk about the PC market, take every number you can think of
and multiply it by ten – at least. I bet there's a number of shareware
authors who make a living at it in the PC market. When you do nothing but
work on product X and you're self-employed, I'd say you've gone
"commercial" in a many respects. For every nice program out there, I can
find another that says "send me beer money if you like this."
OK, so Eet starts a PD/shareware review magazine. The first issue table of
contents says "Review of SID, review of toolBox, review of a substitute
file requester." What are you going to cover in the next issue? Second
question: you think this magazine is going to be more popular than
now-dead .info? Hope you've got a rich uncle.
