So,WHAT IS new in this version?

Feedback Type:  Commentary

Contributed by: Gennx30 Tuesday, June 30 2009 @ 02:48 PM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

1."optimized and Turbocharged for 1057" -uh....ok
2."under the hood changes to prepare for 'next generation of OSX'" -whatever that means
3."several tweaks and fixes" -details! anyway, that would be covered by item #1-

actually all 3 could be listed as ONE improvement-if they are in fact, improvements at all

So.....might as well add:
4 "neglected to put a comma in the word 'that's' in documentation-fixed"
5. Nothing in particular, actually, just wanted to bump SD back to the top of VT for more cash

there are too many honest developers that might go six months or a year before submitting a new version of an app to VT-because of a genuine verifiable improvement-otherwise why not just write

Whats new in this version?
Nothing. just wanted to let you know were still alive......


X-Plane does this all the time-but they have some very legit specific documented changes and fixes

"tweaked and turbocharged" shouldnt cut it for potential buyers/upgraders

a quick trip to the YS site revealed no details I could see-in fact-not even the "generic" ones listed above

and 2 of the above are already listed in the "whats new" in 5.1.4

and ya gotta love a company that makes YOU do the work to avoid the buying of added products

that strikes me as dishonest-no matter how observant you need to be
'Read carefully-or we will charge you for extra stuff-and NO REFUNDS!'

This of course is designed knowing that there exists a constant fixed subset of people who pay little or no attention while ordering and are easily snared-or may be confused and will click BUY (all)
just a little more cash in the coffers

YOU should be the one to knowingly and actively choose/opt in to add products to an order

meh
