This kind of policy by SAS is really a bu....it! If they want to wait
until the cube is a success before they sell their software, they they
rather should sell no software at all. How should the cube ever become
a success if developers have this attitude? Do they really think that
there will be any users other than a few crazy ppl like us, shelfing
out a couple of thousand $$ just to make the cube a success and to
wait until finally get some software? It really has to work the other
way round...
