#Imagine 3.0 rumour?
3 messages in this thread
Hello Mike, I just heard a very Disturbing Rumour. the Rumour
goes….Someone named Harv Laser wile at SIGGRAPH spoke to some of
Imagine 3.0's Beta testers who told him that there was NO WAY that
Imagine 3.0 would be released before October. If this is true I am
going to be VERY UPSET, but Please let me know NOW if this is TRUE.
Reason I ask you to let me know now is, at least I'll be forewarned
of the Delay. If you DO NOT give me this forewarning and I do not
recieve Imagine 3.0 by September 7 1993(willing to give a little
leeway) I will consider this a Breach of promise and a personal
insult and will cancel my order. Please if the Rumour is true have
the courtesy to inform us.
Also if this rumour is pure Rubbish Please let me know so I can
thoroughly Chastise the person who posted this rumour. I'm HOPING the
rumour is untrue BTW. I believe the rumour is now circulating on the
Imagine Mailing list too BTW.
I am truly amazed at the amount of bull shit that people seem
to feel the need to spread. Imagine is worked on each and every day,
we hope to get the software out as soon as we can. I can not give
you a specific day, no one could but I can tell you that we have no
intention of working to a October delivery date. Please inform those
folks who feel the need to just flap their lips for the sake of
wasting air to shut up.
Impulse is very open about our working practice. We have
never been on time, so we try an be somewhat vague about our delivery
dates. If you are not comfortable with Impulse and feel that there
is some contract between you and us then please let me strike your
order from the data base. We are not interested in fostering ill
will with any user. You should call the office to do so, and please
use the 800 number to do so.
If the truth be know Peter, we will never be done with
Imagine, all we are able to do is give you the current version we
have at some date along the continual time line of development. I
think that the long wait between versions makes people nervous, from
this version on we will not be waiting so long to offer users new
versions with less new features but a more immediate response to the
pressing issues that develope in your business and personal needs.
Recently I too heard this rumor, I would ask you this, Who has
Mr. Laser talked too, names please, and why is he taking his time to
tell you something that he heard from a "BETA TESTER". I personally
know all of the Beta sites and I assure you that if anyone of these
people have expressed an opinion of this nature then they are
obviously interested in some other agenda than the one put forth for
them to follow.
We are doing our best to bring you high powered software, at
what we think is a very resonable price. Considering the recent
introduction of several other vendors, I would personally feel as
though I was being held hostage at the amount that some are charging
for upgrades that really dont offer that much.
If we are late, it is not because we want to be, it is because
we are doing the right thing instead of just doing something.
Now you like others must make a decision, do you want to
support Impulse or do you want to become a member of the tabloid
babblers who, because they have nothing to say, seem only to find the
negative thing to say.
As a final note Peter, The contract between you and Impulse
begins only when we cash your check or debit your credit card. We
will do neither until we have a product for you to use. If you have
some pressing job to accomplish, please use 2.0 it still works quite
nicely and many thousands of professionals are using it every day.
I look forward to your response and trust that you will are
satisfied with my response.
I, for one, am content to wait until Impulse is ready to ship V3.0.
I do NOT want to be a beta tester! 🙂
