After working with MM for VFP for two years now, I feel like I owe him more money than what I've already paid. $699 is a steal for extensibility.

>Oakleaf has just released a beta of Mere Mortals .NET. VFP developers seem to be all over the fence on whether now is the time to delve into .NET or to wait for it to mature more so that it will be easier to work with and provide basic things we've grown to expect as VFP developers. While I'd like to give .NET and the MM .NET framework a try, I think the price of $699 for MM .NET is too high for many to justify a try and see approach. Also many corporations have a $500 limit on purchases before they require a second approval and justification which usually warrants a solid commitment. I think Oakleaf should try and see if they can bring the price down to $499 and maybe offer an "after 60-days support" option for the extra $200. I think they could sell more copies to make up the difference. Does anyone else agree?
