Re: Why 2.0
by Martin on Tuesday 06/Jun/2006, @09:05
All those strange versions dont work and are bad marketing. People will not know if this is a new version or not. There are only a few worldwide brands (like Microsoft) that can afford to do this because a new release is announced everywhere in the media. And then the gap between versions must be large enough.
Look up Dreamweaver in Wikipedia. You will find the version history at the bottom. My boss recently refused to buy Dreamweaver 8 at first because he thought we have already Dreamweaver MX 2004 which is newer. It's not. Did you expect that? I didnt until I looked it up on Wikipedia. Meaningless to say you will find nothing about this on their Homepage. If you already need an encyclopedia to look up which product is newer your marketing strategy is definitely flawed.
