They key is not creating a barrier to entry. It would be ideal if I could license a "Mexuar-like" client in small lots of 5 or 10 at a price of around $10 per license. You might even give away a "free" developer pack of 2 licenses so folks can easily get started. This all enables the little gut to get in the game, and then maybe hit a homerun resulting in thousands of licenses.
