Hey, when it's my money I'm thrifty, and when it's your money
I'm greedy.

Some vendors sell things cheaply knowing tha tthe average AS/400
user will upgrade significantly over the life of the account,
and they will make their money off the customer as they grow,
not with the initial sale. Of course,

Frankly, I'd give my software away, if I could figure out how to
get everyone to give me things for free also.  Unfortunately I
haven't figured that out yet.

I want to price things fairly, so I generally price by
concurrent use. Some customers (mostly the smaller ones) would
rather I tier priced the software. I don't know if my pricing
strategy is really delivering hte most value at the most revenue
to me - which is what I want.

I do find it funny that one person on this list says that its
okay to beat the IBM governor by using his product to
rewrite/reconfigure your resource use, while just setting a flag
is cheating. I guess it's okay if you sweat a little to get your
results - until IBM decides to rewrite the OS to remove HIS
advantage also.
