#$700 Software
Shawn, I agree wholeheartedly with you about $700 price tag for software
being very steep for people who have spent $2200 and up for the Toaster system.
Then again, I like to bitch…but feel this IS a legitimate bitch.
The Toaster is beautiful, and I appreciate NewTek's ingenuity in coming up
with it. If not for the Toaster, the Amiga may have gone belly up two years
ago.
I know a LOT of talent, time and technology went into creating Toaster 3.0
and the new 4000. Am not begrudging NewTek any profit…want them to do well
along with brain-dead marketing bozos at Commodore. (Although Commodore's stu-
pidity is BEGGING for a chapter eleven!!!!)
Maybe times being what they are, seven hundred dollars IS a fair price…
but can't shake the notion that for us registered users, we should have been
cut a better deal. Anyway, I am enjoying the 3.0 software so much, that I
don't feel like bitching too much right now. Just had to let you know, I had
the exact same thought you did.
Concentrate on the scads of beautiful ToasterFonts, new Lightwave…and put
baaahing sheep, seven hundred dollar software, and idiotic Commodore marketers
out of your mind, and you will enjoy yourself.
Pray for a nice inexpensive upgrade (probably next year!)…Commodore may
be beyond prayers….what THEY need is a miracle!!!!
Tom.
