PTP pneu and DW hair. Sorry

[CoolHand]

Perhaps DW had a slightly better method of development? Sure it's the same concept but just because they might not have money doesn't mean they couldn't offer something in return.

But I pretty much agree with you though. Money makes the world go around.

Oh yeah, that is totally possible. I don't know how DW did what they did, its all just speculation on my part. But, on the other hand, it is a fairly good bet that it went down something like that.

I was just trying to point out that there is a very good chance that it wasn't really PTP that quashed DW, but rather some outside influence or mitigating circumstance that blew the deal, or made it unworkable.

Its always the same, the public never gets the whole story, you just have to hope that what you do get it pretty close to the truth.

All I know is I want someone to release it so I can buy one!

From where I sat, the DW design looked, to me, like an overly complex version of what PTP was already developing.

That's my personal take.

On a side note: businesses are not in business to 'help' other businesses, they are in business to help themselves.

Business partnerships - the ones that last - are created solely on the basis of each having something the other one needs - not charity or good will on the part of one towards another. Even when there is a solid relationship (I manufacture, you distribute) only an idiot believes that their partner isn't looking for a way to improve their end of the deal.

You want to play all nice-nice, no competition, lets all work together - go teach in a Montessori school, but stay out of business, cause sure as s*** happens, someone will come along and eat your lunch.

But come on... it worked so well in the Soviet Union - capitalistic competition is evil you know.
