I'm not sure it's "unscrupulous retailers", but rather small retailers that
were stuck with a sim that didn't sell, a supplier that won't allow them to
return it, and an unwillingness to operate at a loss. I know one store here in
my town with three copies on the wall at the original price...a shame. I've
been evangelising for them/him to anyone who will listen, but no sales so far.
The newly reduced price version hasn't shown up here yet, although a few
copies have turned up in the cheapies bins here and there. I've bought those
and given them as gifts after accumulating three copies to run on my home
network...8^)
Anyway, my point is, this has to say something about slow sales of the title.
What -does- burn me is the way sims like F-15 and Falcon 4.0 keep ending up in
"best of all time" lists, but GPL doesn't.
