Umilator poll : Comment 16 of 50ANN.lu

Have I said otherwise? My point is just that when you say there is a huge interest in seeing Umilator released you really don't know. All you got to go by are those 30-50 vocal people (unless you know something that isn't public... like Amithlon sales-figures), and if advocates were a measure of size, then the Amiga-platform surely would be one of the larger ones! ;)

Best measurement would be Amithlon-sales minus those who'd refuse to pay another ~$50 for something they already paid for and minus those who've left the Amiga or lost interest in Amithlon/Umilator.

I think this poll is an atempt to go somewhere in between these two measurements.

That's how I read the anouncement on the AmithlonOpen list. Some sort breakthrough, but "someone" need confirmation that it's worth the investment in resources (time and money).

If you want to sell something you need capital to start with. And if it doesn't come from an investor/publisher it must be the users.
