Sometime soon ARDI will have to decide on its marketing strategy for
Executor 2. We have a few thousand customers currently and to serve
them best we need to sell more copies, which will allow us to hire
more engineers. The new engineers will allow us to add more features,
fix more bugs and provide more compatibility. This is not an
inexpensive undertaking, so we really need to get some national and
international exposure.
I'd love to discuss our situation with the brass at Apple. I think it
makes a lot more sense for us to work together than the alternative.
