Would you invest in a product and purchase the code if you were not going to use it?

If you expect other companies to, then I expect you to!
If they are different on the code level (so different in fact that there is not resemblance) than what else is there to talk about...I mean you can skin anything!? Is apple not able to make a pretty calculator because someone else made one first?

It would be a waste of money to buy Konfab because they didn't do anything like it...

Konfab still has it's place...people will buy it...because it is very very different...
