PowerMail is the classic example of a great product that's no longer commercially viable enough to dump lots of speculative development investment into -- in part due to having had its potential marked decimated, for several years, by a product given away for free with the OS that's "good enough for most people". Speaking as a struggling indie developer myself, I am wholly sympathetic with both CTM's position as well as the users'. It's a tough situation. Encouragement is always nice to hear, but probably the most useful way to make a convincing business case is to start by getting 100 of your friends to buy the current version. -ben -- Ben Kennedy (chief magician) zygoat creative technical services http://www.zygoat.ca
