Call it a new marketing gimmic, altruism. People stop and stare because it's so unexpected. Competitors get all excited because they can't figure out where you're coming from. You're right though, I'm quite competitive when challenged, and quite good as a gamesman when evaluating likely outcomes of various choices. I'm just not particularly motivated by $$$, as long as I've got enough to pay the bills and we've got enough to fund the projects we want to work on. This puts Microsmiths at a competitive advantage because it means we can work on projects which other companies might reject as being too risky financially. Beats the heck out of losing sleep while working on projects whose 1'st priority is the bottom line. Chas
