Jurgen I would agree IF this were the case, like it is for most of the dozens of software programs I've owned. HOWEVER, I highly doubt it. Even after all these years of the core users asking rather nicely to be treated right and to have at least a semblance of professionalism, Ritlabs STILL behaves like a bunch of fifth-graders who try to code, do their own marketing, their own "support" or lack thereof (how convenient to have a board like this one to take the punches and do the work for them!) etc. etc. One very small example which I saw months and months ago and couldn't believe is still right smack in the middle of their home page. They claim their software is going to "extend our lives"... You'd think they would have corrected what at best is poor translation and at worst... well do I need to say it? PATHETIC is the only word that comes to mind (I'm pretty sure others wouldn't be quite that polite...) Also, consider this. Even after the sizeable chunk kept by the various credit card processing companies, etc. what has been coming their way for years MUST amount to a veritable fortune in Moldavian money , according to a reputable friend who's spent quite some time over there. Clearly the money isn't re-invested in the company, if it were TB would have long evolved into the mature, respectable product we all would love for it to be regarded as. The whole thing reeks of AMATEURISM and GREED to me. How sad, and how disappointing.
