Eulogio –
If you'll be kind enough to check an earlier post of mine, I certainly
lauded Soft-Logik for their devotion to software development for the
Amiga.
I live with deadlines every day at work. I don't reap any special rewards
(other than bettering my career in the long run) for doing my job. My job
is to meet those deadlines. That's just a basic premise of the business
world today. It's not friendly – in fact, it's quite cut-throat.
I'm in the vehicle safety systems business. If I release a product from my
manufacturing line that has some shortcomings, someone will die (I'm not
complaining – I chose my job, and I enjoy it). Fortunately, Soft-Logik
doesn't have the same level of requirements, nor should they; but they did
take a business risk by releasing an uncompleted product. If it's
successful (as S-L's reputation indicates it will be), then that risk was
well-taken, and more power to them.
Be it right or wrong, we live in a customer-driven marketplace, where
people expect quality, and want it right the first time. All I've
expressed is my opinion that as a consumer, perhaps caution is adviseable.
Nothing more.
In fact, PageStream is looking better and better to me. I'm tired of
ProPage crashing, and I find SL's continued support of their products very
encouraging.
The 'big picture' is much bigger than both of us, I'm sure.
Comrades at arms?
