The way I look at it is to simply evaluate how much time I spend trying
to
find a solution vs. just buying a solid piece of software. It is a lot easier for consultants like myself to equate that all out as I compare
it to
hourly billing - it would be better to for me to just buy the software
and
spend my time billing out hours vs. trying to find something for free. Especially when the ability to try before buy is perfect with TextPad.
I'm glad you brought that up Aaron - I don't often think that way. It is definitely something to keep in mind. For me, I usually already know what free software is available from using it at home - it is just a matter of finding a Windows binary. I think I also come from the point of view having recently been a student, for whom $30 is a big investment - that's like two weeks worth of groceries - or a two-four depending on your mood :) ##################################################################################### Attention: The above message and/or attachment(s) is private and confidential and is intended only for the people for which it is addressed.
