I forgot to say that is has been built for Leopard, but the sources can easily be modified to be compiled under panther and tiger.

This link you gave is just a stupid effort to get someone to go to your shopping website.

Also, since when did size become an issue in an app. Your points are stupid.

Why are you being rude now ? Feel free to insult me by email. Also, my products are free, so I don't see why I'd do what you say. I don't need advertising, I don't want advertising.

The size of the app does not matter. That wasn't my point.

I'd be more than happy to explain my point again, without offending anyone. Just contact me by email if this is what you want.

Ok. Fine.

1. You say you can write easier code. Fine. Your codes does it in 1 platform. I wrote my in 3 platforms with the same code.

2. Size doesn't matter. What is the difference between 100k and 7MB. It takes no time at all to download on a home or business dsl.

The reason it is 7 mb is because the code is compiled and can be used on 3 OS. Did you think of that?

3. Price is set by the developer and people will pay it. Why do you care what price I set for my licenses?

4. MBS and RB are wonderful apps. You should them sometime. I think you'll find that you'll do less with more and reach more people.

There isn't an app out there I couldn't develop on the Mac in RB and MBS. Windows, maybe not, but I don't like developing for Windows.

I really think that maybe we should have this conversation by email.

First of all, excuse me for my poor English, it's not my mother tongue. Also, I'll try to ignore your impolite and immature behavior. Such as that bad comment about my software. How else can I tell you : I don't care about good advertising. I care about good, constructive criticism. Not how many stars you gave me.

To come back to the center of our debate, I'll answer to your last comment. That's the least I can do after my first comment here.

> 1.
You are absolutely right about this. (I also understand that unchecking the "Mac" checkbox and checking the "Linux" one at compilation time is a painful task that justifies on its own an exaggerated price.)

> 2.
Again, you are right. Though that's exactly what I said on my 3rd comment.

> The reason it is 7 mb is because the code is compiled and can be used on 3 OS. Did you think of that?
Now don't forget that I also am a developer. I know how compilation works. There are 3 separate binaries, one for each OS. But again, I don't care since the size is not important. Since we both agree about this point, let's don't talk about it anymore.

> 3.
I complained about it because I thought it was set too high. You are receiving feedback, that's something developers usually WANT. I tried to be objective, I even wrote a small app to prove my point. Macupdate is about giving opinions, so that's what I did. I'm ready to apologize if my behavior was not appropriate, but really that's not what I'm seeing right now. (Also, you will notice by checking my profile that this is not how I usually react.)

> 4.
I'm sorry. I've been a user of RB for years. I mean, really YEARS. I think I started with version 2.0, but I cannot really remember. I know everything about its constant beta stage, non user-friendly interface and the slow binaries it produces. My opinion about RB is that you constantly have to look for plugins, and constantly hit limitations.
I agree that MBS is the best plugin for RB and that you can do almost anything with it.

I really hope this clarifies the situation, and that you can now see what my point was. Now I'd really love to hear what other people think about your software. Really. I mean, maybe I am completely wrong. But isn't that the purpose of comments here at macupdate ?

Well, since price is your only issue what would be a reasonable price then?

For someone in need such as an image bureau or Windows to Mac switcher I would think the cost is very reasonable.

Well that's a good question, but I cannot answer it : developing software is not my primary job, I don't need money from that (you can tell by how awful my website looks). Therefor, it would be hard for me to give the proper price.
If customers are ready to pay $40, then good for you. I'm just saying that I won't. I mean, I can get really advanced and rich programs for that money (like, for example, ExpanDrive, which I will probably purchase in a short while. Or like GraphicConverter, LittleSnitch, QuickTime Pro,...).

I'm glad you can see my point of view now, I hope you will consider it.

I understand. Thanks for your comments.
