surly it would be more than that, think of all the people who use plus, then think of the number of times a day people sign on to msn messenger.


espacilly the people on dial up who have to re sign on every time they reconnect.

i'm just trying to thing of ways of having ads in the program without annoying the hell out of everyone and without using SPYWARE

O.P. RE: Would this kind of adware be OK with you?
I've always thought selling the naming rights to a program would be a way to generate revenue. If they can get $100 mil from Staples for the arena in Los Angeles why not call the program something like Patchou and have a company market some products with that name or do whatever they choose with it.

Well I doubt he's far off if he's giving away 26 gamecubes a year :P  He's raking it in as he is, I don't think he'll really want to change.

GC:                 $200                   (not precisely...)
game:             $60
memory:         $14 (­?)
                       
total:              $274 * 26 =
lets make it:   $275 * 26 = 7150

and btw.. who says he's gonna do that a whole year? :refuck:
