- Well he sells apps too (and mice and keyboards :-). Maybe AT should start
- making apps too. AmigaOS drivers for PCI cards too. They should also create
- a software distribution network for shareware, with standard and secure ways
- to pay for it (Visa, Mastercard, DigiCash, CyberCash, normal cash, cheques
- etc.).
-
- Look at Be, Inc. They're distributing software for their developers, and it
- would suite the Amiga too, since it relies so much on shareware.
