Same with netscape in fact, totally free product initially, but doenst stop it being trade!
Do you really think I could really make that much money ?...PMSL.
It doesnt have adverts nor does the site and it wont do...FACT

Its not a community product if you keep total ownership of it and dont allow others to write their own versions etc using the same core technology.
Bullshit, if you wnat to contribute make suggestions for changes and features that are valid and I will include them without asking for money...LOL
You clearly dont mind doing work and then let anyone plaigerise it.. I wont let that happen.
Besides, I will be publishing enough information that anyone could create there own program from scratch...

I don't understand why you are pushing Stu to let you do it on here
.
If it is FREE, it doesn't matter how big or little the publicity you get for this, just do it all off you own back and if people are happy with it, it will take off of it's own volition.
Given the above, it just doesn't make sense of your insistance on having everything published here
?
Mike,
Please give me a valid reason why I can not share my knowledge with the community other than the lame trader one. ?

And if it lifts his profile (is that actually possible in Simon's case ?) then so what.....
Just looks to me like people moaning for the sake of it and because Simon can and has been a cock in the past!
Personally I think people having access to the software is more important.....
LOL, Agreed

Only with YB IAW ecu's at present.

Stu,
With respect, you know as well as I do you are only sticking to that as a delaying tactic.
Strange you dropped your prices for your lower spec version product just as all this was becoming public
This will be fully published for free along with many secrets you and others are trying to keep out the public domain.
Just have the balls to admit you are doing this for no other reason than to protect yourself and your trade. LOL

Stu, strange that you mention its free and your are doing your best to stop it now that you realise its full potential....
