New microsquirt?

Post by Costa »

New price announced here: http://www.anonym.to/?http://www.micros ... 20#p151951

Concerns about the microsquirt module pricing still priced at $250. (Wasn't it $200 a few years ago?)

Just as long as when a potential future user "balks" at the resale price I can point them to this thread and let them know the reason exactly why they are paying more when they could have had it for less....
WOW!!! What a bitter old bastard he is!

And the post afterwards that points this out:

This statement is incredible. Under the current business model as I understand it, for small vendors the MODULE IS THE LICENSE.
Which is exactly right.

Thanks for bringing us all of the gold, ca7! :-)
