Re: [PEDA] Re[2]: DXP: Free updates?

2002-08-02 Thread Rene Tschaggelar

Thanks for the info. 
I wasn't aware of the servicepacks. There appears to
have been a communication problem then.
I see the point, ATS includes one year of servicepacks.
I'm probably going to get DXP at the latest possible 
date before the conditions drop.

 3.0 had at least 1 SP. 98 had 3 SP.  99SE was at SP6.
 
 Past performance may not be an indication of future performance,
 but,  for fun,  try the following:
 
 Superimpose an imaginary ATS program (had one existed at the time) over the SP
 release dates of 99SE,  and ask yourself which service pack level you would now be
 running at,  had you only the one year of included ATS?  Assume you bought P99SE on
 the first day it was released.
 
 Would running at that SP level have been acceptable to you?   Or would
 you have required an update?

To make things worse, what about all the poor people who bought Protel in the last 
year, got the 'FREE' ATS for a year, but it will run out long before DXP has been 
released for a year?

Rene,

3.0 had at least 1 SP. 98 had 3 SP.  99SE was at SP6.

Re: [PEDA] Re[2]: DXP: Free updates?

2002-08-01 Thread Tony Karavidas

I would think they should start ATS based on the release date of DXP to make
all the ATS early adopters happy. I think that would be fair. Some people
ponied up the money early which Altium got to use over that time definately
without delivering anything. Now that Altium has delivered DXP, the ATS
clock should start...
