- I just wanted to say that i absolutely agree with what Markus said.
- I have been in the computer business since 1981, and most companies
- until today really had this feeling of "You can be lucky that we allow
- you to buy our product!", which really, sorry for the word, but pisses
- me off.
- And as Markus already said, there is NO 100% copy protection, and
- developing one that is close to that isn't an easy task...
- Anyway, my main point was that i, as Markus, licensed Executor summer
- last year, after following and using it for at least half a year.
- I did this as i realized that i was using Executor more and more,
- and due to the fact that i saw hugh improvements in Executor at
- that time.
- After i returned to germany from my holidays in the USA in set up
- a ftp mirror site here in Germany for all european users to get
- hold of Executor as quickly as possible.
- Since then the mirror is up and running, Executor 2 is still not out
- but i am anything else but angry at ARDI. They really did an amazing
- job with Executor as it is now, and i am still patiently waiting for
- E2 to be released.
- Even if it would take several months more or even a year i wouldn't
- complain, as opposed to other companies ARDI really tries to keep
- their goals and promisses for E2, and their information policy makes
- them more attractive than any other company i have dealt with before.
- Even though i am a very active in the networking area, not only as
- user but a consultor, admin and programmer as well i don't mind that
- Executor won't support serial ports or even networking in E2, as i
- can used it with linux next to Executor. I'd love to see it in
- Executor sometime, but i absolutely understand their reason not to
- include it in E2.
-
- Finally i just want to say keep up the amazing work guys, and let's
- hope for the best in the future and that you still will be dealing
- with your customers like you do now in the years to come.
-
- Read ya, Phil
