Is that for the Windows
version? From: Robert Shubert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2005 12:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Witango-Talk: Tough question - Mixed Elation! John, I would strongly
suggest considering the upgrade of just some of your licenses. If cost is an
issue, this might be a good solution. Today’s hardware is much more capable, and
Witango 5.5 is also a huge step in processing power over T2K. I can do more
today with two 5.5 servers than I could with 6 T2K servers. I personally think
that 5.5 is an enormous step over T2K and wouldn’t look
back. Robert From: John
Muldoon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I too, will be sticking
around. I have been running Tango since 1.x with little or no problems. I have
mixed feelings though, since the last version we purchased was T2k for
multiple servers and instances and the price that was paid for that was
enormous. This is one of the reasons why we have not upgraded. I understand the
fact that Phil cannot cut a break on a product he did not sell, but I am
currently running the Witango server on four machines and to upgrade them all
would be a considerable cost. Kind of a not broke-don't fix-can't afford type
thing. I think if the price came down to a more competative level, sales would
go up as word got around. It is the same deal I have with one of my clients. He
is a photographer and wanted to sell prints on-line. He was asking BIG bucks for
each print, even though the cost of reproducing the prints was relativley low;
$500 to over $1000 per print. He got no sales. I told him that if he wanted
to sell more prints, he would have to lower the price to be more
competative as to what is already out there in the print world. He lowered his
price to $50 to $200 and now is selling lots of these. Not sure if this analogy
would apply, I do not know the development cost or other associated costs with
putting something like Witango on the market. BUT if you sell 100 pieces of
something for $5000, your gross would be $500,000. But if you sold 10,000 pieces
of something at $500 your gross would be $5,000,000. You need to sell to a
competative market at a competative price. At least that is the way I always
looked at it. Not sure if this would
or could apply to Witango. I am sure Phil is a smart man and he already knows
this stuff. But I would think that if Witango is going to take any type of the
market that is currently out there, they must change their strategy. I
love the product and most of the people I know who use it as a development tool,
love it also. Just think folks if there were 10.000 Witango developers out
there. I am sure Phil would be happy and so would we.
Just my 2 cents worth.
From: Stefan
Gonick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I am happy to report that I received a private email
from Phil that answered I too will be
sticking with Witango. I have been using it since version 1.0 and love the
product. ________________________________________________________________________TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go tohttp://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf ________________________________________________________________________TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go tohttp://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf
