Yes, I've ported it to eComStation. It runs beautifully on eCS. I've already
sold three of them since eCS was released in mid-August. One to a Property
Management Company in the mid-Atlantic area; one to an Industrial Packaging
Manufacturer in the midwest, and the latest to a Municipal Water Treatment
Facility in the southwest. I'm assembling their system as we speak.
And if you think three's not significant, please remember that this is not a
horizontal app. It's also quite expensive, selling for $4,000 to $6,500
depending on user requirements.
I've also got several hot leads in the pipeline. People are finally listening
and looking for alternatives to Windows(*) for their mission-critical apps.
My sales under eCS are up dramatically. So I guess your Microsoft cronies will
have to have me killed.
