Oh, distributors always say things like that. I'm convinced they're just
selling soap, and don't have a grasp on the technical value / price ratio.
All they see is "How many of these can I sell, and if the price was a
little higher, I could make more money!" I would welcome any evidence to
the contrary.
It is a good point that distributors and dealers prefer to sell a higher
priced package over a lower priced package … and hence the magazines like
them better too because the companies tend to be richer and spend more for
advertising etc etc. In the case of Southern Technologies, though, I think
Eddie Churchill has about as good a grasp on what products are worth in the
Amiga market as anyone, at least anyone I know-

Oh, I was going to hold up Eddie as an example of just how blind buyers could
be. Eddie is still mad because I didn't make InterChange into a program that
exchanged spreadsheet files. When I first told him about InterChange, that's
what he wanted it to be, and swear to gawd, every single time I talk to him,
he tells me it's not selling because I'm not exchanging word processor and
spreadsheet formats. He's also told me that Turbo Silver comes with a
program to exchange objects with Sculpt 3D (it doesn't). He doesn't know the
difference between an ANIM and the object in an ANIM. Don't get me going
about Eddie. 🙂
Say, John, why don't you exchange spreadsheets? I'd love to be able to do a
3D rotation of my accounts recievable. What is the difference between an
ANIM and an object in an ANIM anyhow? (No, no, nevermind C-:)
