I would even argue that was the idea behind having McMillian as a 'partner', I also argue it was a correct idea, but may not have been implemented correctly. MDKsoft must seem like the smallest potato in the patch to an outfit like McMillian, where (if it is possible) a smaller distributor/publisher or instead of a combined distributor/publisher, individual distributor & publisher might be able to offer the attention to quality that MDKsoft's product deserves.
