A former Netscape Executive (wants to remain anonymous for now) just
gave the AmiZilla project a $2000 boost. He is a long time Amiga user and still uses WinUAE and the Video Toaster Flyer a lot. He contacted me and wanted to match the $2000 I used to start the AmiZilla Project.

Former Netscape Executive gives Amizilla a boost. : Comment 29 of 43 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 19-Dec-2003 03:20 GMT | In reply to Comment 28 (ece): No, you actually made me laugh big time, so problem at all.
I just wanted to put some real numbers into there as someone who actually knows for sure.
Unfortunately as I pointed out this kind of money is weak even for one (professional IT) person, not a whole team pretty much anywhere in the world these days.
Just maybe not in say Russia, but if I say that I am making a wrong assumption that could be just as close to reality as yours (ie completely wrong). So let's just say I do not know about those countries.
And even in China and India you are likely to pay between $10-20k/year for an average guy, and the IT sector has the lowest wages there, that's why the US jobs are getting outsourced - in a very bad way imho, but that is a completely different topic and not for ann.
So as we both said until some miracle happens and the money goes quite a bit higher, pretty much anyone will do it for love, not money. |
