Andrew,
I got 60K first month, 30K next month, then 20, 10 5 and zero. I was part of the screen
saver fad, and it was all over in 6 months.

Er, Fred,
I write software too, I wrote the first ever multimedia program for the PC
in DOS and Windows, the roller coster simulator COASTER. (realtime fractal
video decompression, with audio)
First months sales $240,000, in 1994
Outsold Lotus 123.
So don't put me in the 'those of you',
I'm in the those of us.
Randy
