Hi,
Probably 10 years or more ago, Gavin Crawford did an excellent job of
packaging Ovation Pro for RISC OS - that means a huge printed manual
and big box for it to go in.
Time has passed and I've now sold all those packs.
Is it worth while printing more? Could I find someone to do the work?
I am inclined to answer no to both those, so the new product is -
Ovation Pro for RISC OS for £100, with no printed manual or box (or
disc). There will be a copy of the CD image that can be downloaded,
and you'd get a key by email.
The point being that existing RISC OS users will be able to use the
CD image to keep their copies up to date.
(I'll explain about the key and where to find the CD image later).
The main loss is the isv fonts that used to come on the CD - probably
never used.
Of course I have just got an email along the lines "my RISC OS
computer has no CD drive or internet..."
I reckon they can toggle in the code on the front panel switches.
