Hi friends-
My feeling is that our entire mentality must change before we really
have an efficient economy. At the moment the mentality is a quantity
mentality and we need a quality mentality. If we only could see that
our entire purpose is unity with diversity, that we should be vying
with one another for service rather than quantity and profit we might
see computers that would last a long time. They have the Rolls Royce
auto that lasts a long time, why not a computer?
It is getting to the point where a computer is a necessary piece of
survival equip. and it is imperative we all have equal opportunity to
communicate. We are dealing with a system, a social system and each
system is comprised of three parts, i.e. Human and Material Resources
viewed and utilized by human Communication. If we do not see the
reality of these resources we then will be misusing them for the wrong
purposes and create for ourselves a technological monster called
materialism. It took 200 years for Rome to fall and I wonder how much
longer we can hold out. I know I am sick of trying to interpret poor
English from tech supports from India, Mexico etc. I don't mind that
we are outsourcing but I do mind that we are not receiving proper
service.
OK, that is my soapbox for today, sorry.
regards,
doug

I'm tending towards the opinion that the best business model would be
to
"rent" customers the software and renew the key each year. That way
they
wouldn't be able to use obsolete software! (God forbid that it happens
but I can see the trend already).
So in that model everybody will be forced to buy a new computer every
other
year or so. On my Mac with OS 8.6 I run tons of obsolete software. In
your
business model I could throw that Mac away....
