Your funny. You see a project or a client as a single sale. Others here have created verticals for an industry. Should those people be forever screwed because the initial project was fine that there is no need to upgrade? Are you saying that the people who maintain Pegasus and keep it current bad businessmen? I think your missing major parts of human nature in your premise. Human beings want change. Fashion is a key industry that proves this. Now take on the science of advertising. It's proved itself on the psychology for new and improved.
