| Pegasos-Italia : Comment 85 of 181 | ANN.lu |

@Bill Hogget:
In your hurry to knock down bbrv's gracious (yet, sarcastic) offer of
employment, you missed one very simple point: you don't have to know what our
concept is about to accept the offer! We would be essentially (sarcastically) hiring you to rewrite our goals into something you'd personally buy.
Then, of course, you buy a Pegasos, which will bring our total combined world
sales to 1 for the forseeable future, when it turns out nobody in the "Real
World" likes your idea. We will then spiral into bankruptcy in a flurry of
lawsuits, with only a handful of rabid ex-customers and employees to back us
up, just like other "companies" who did the same tactic ;)
The Genesi concept is this: we're gonna sell to real people as soon as we
got something to sell to real people. At that time, we will be able to tell
real people why they would want one. Until then, what's the point of expending
all our time convincing real people when all they'd say is "great, so where
do I buy one?"
At the moment, only a bunch of rabid Amigans, Linux geeks, and the rare band
of dedicated followers of Ralph, would actually want one, because they are the
only people who will piss their pants with excitement at a bunch of numbers on
a screen.
(You'll find out in a couple of weeks exactly what we're selling and making
and who we're selling and making them with. Maybe our plan won't stink so much
then, in your opinion? :))
As and when we are selling, and they can walk away with a physical product
perhaps even from a real shop store with windows and shelves, instead of just
a shipping note then it is time to put it out to "Real People", and not just
the overexcited pale-skin brigade. And I don't mean Wicca and Slipknot fans.
Or maybe you'll just continue to stick your oar in on issues that you freely
admit don't concern you, or shit on the things we do that don't even matter to
you?
Your choice, I guess. Happy Post-Post-Halloween!
