I'm surprised there isn't more of an open-source attitude among developers, working together to keep the community alive, rather than all this ravenous bickering over the last few remaining dollars in the community.Most of the software announced on A2Central recently has been free.... a couple of NDAs from Ryan Suenaga, Silvern Castle, others... Wait a minute - this is probably moot. Can anyone recall any recently announced Apple II software where the author has asked for money?
Hmmm, define recently announced...Still, if VNCView gets a little bit quicker/more stable at handling my 1024 x 768 (fixed res >_<) Beige G3, then I'd pay a few bucks for it. Isn't SIS paid for software? I don't have it for that reason - I think it's worth it and I'd like to play with it, but I have absolutely no need for it beyond sheer geek curiosity. Whilst it is amusingly competent at many things, my IIgs is not my only computer ;)
