Hi list, here is my two Euro-cent on this topic. I think that many people will miss the free starter kit, as it had one relly huge advantage over a 30-days trial.
>>time<< You probably might know this scenario: You want to try a new piece of Software. You Download the 30-days trial installer, install it play around for a day or two and suddenly you get really busy with your job, girlfriend, kids or whatever... You open up the program you wanted to give a testdrive and get a nice dialogue box saying that the demo expiered... What would you do? Go and buy the programm? I guess I wouldn�t. Next point. Open the 30-days trial without a printed book, don�t know where to start without a multimedia background. Get frustrated within the first 2 days. Open up again after a period of time -> Demo expiered. IMHO a 30 days trial does only make sense if it counts the effective days of use, not the installation Date. How will this be in the new version(s) of Revolution? I really understand that RunRev need to make their living. I also think the pricing is fair. But I guess with the new limitations Revolution looses a lot of its sexappeal and the small "inconveniences" will be a bit harder to swallow for new potential purchasers. So I guess without a really good promotion concept and 3rd party books the userbase won�t grow. The new concept lacks simplicity and the charme I loved about Rev. Develop once, debug, test and publish anywhere. And due to the lack of localized versions many people (on the geman market at last) might consider other tools... I�m not complaining. Just thinking a lot. Regards, Malte _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
