Why "upgrade" if your box works the way you want it to? This rush to upgrade mentality is marketing driven, just like it's speed for CPU's. Once you reach a saturation point with your app and the money train slows down, you make some minor tweak to something that wasn't broken to begin with and change the "feature set" around. Voila!! you have a "New", "Upgraded" app that you sell for another $150 and the money train starts rolling again because all the "Bleeding edge" dufuses rush out to get it. And you wonder why these companies think you're stupid sheeple to be fleeced?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Its-the-homebrew-apps-13130448 Sat, 09 Apr 2005 19:03:44 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Its-the-homebrew-apps-13103103
A poor response to the issue, but common. My workplace is all about upgrading, but the problem is, they don't keep track of what they upgrade, so they spin their wheels and waste a LOT of company money in upgrading things that aren't broke.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Its-the-homebrew-apps-13103103 Wed, 06 Apr 2005 14:16:34 EDT
