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. -- Brad Jensen brad@elstore.com President Electronic Storage Corporation Tulsa OK USA 918-664-7276 LaserVault Report Retrieval & Data Mining www.Laservault.com www.eufrates.com - Add distance learning to your site with easy course preparation
