I get the feeling that you have never tried to push it in the Windows market.
That is true. My idea was to make it more appealing to Windows users first.
Has anyone bought OPW who had no knowledge of it on RiscPC machines?
Yes quite a few actually, up to 20.
Maybe it's not ready yet and maybe it's not attractive enough for the wider Windows world, but a review in a magazine or two or on a high profile web site might get some new users and might highlight what, if anything, needs changing.
I was always wary of the "strangled at birth" effect, building up a bad reputation in other words.
Then again, you might not want the hassle of 1000s of windows users complaining about its idiosyncrasies.
I use OP on Windows and some things scream at me. -- David Pilling email: david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx web: http://www.davidpilling.net post: David Pilling P.O. Box 22 Thornton Cleveleys Blackpool. FY5 1LR UK fax: +44(0)870-0520-941
