Support Problems?
4 messages in this thread
What about the Atari ST version of SBPro. I tried doing some DML
programming for my business about a year ago but gave up when I couldn't
get any support. Doug Anderson
The Atari version is something which we've been having a degree of
conversation with Atari Corp about lately, and as yet we have scheduled no
new upgrades in the immediate future. Beyond that, I can't say as yet. A
lot will have to do with whether people (not necessarily yourself, mind
you) get around to sending in their reg cards: at present, I'd say well
below 10% of all the units we've sold are registered, which doesn't make
for a large (known) user base to upgrade. I may be off by 100 or so, but I
believe that there are only about 250 registered ST Pro users out there, a
LOT more Personal ($79 list) owners, and a bit more for Personal/2, but
still not very many when compared with the 6000+ Amiga owners NOT COUNTING
the Personal and Personal 2 owners, or the number of PC types who are about
the same number. A big OUCH, if you know what I mean.

Are you saying that your Amiga sales are approximately equal to your PC
sales? Wow. I saw your press in Infoworld recently. Maybe someday we'll
have an Amiga weekly…
This is posted privately so as not to discourage people, but no, I'm NOT
saying that Amiga sales are approximately equal to our PC sales. What I
said was that our PC sales after 1 year are quickly approaching those of
our Amiga products after FIVE. The only correlation as it currently stands
is that there are approximately the same number of users….
