RE: Axiom Software leaving the Amiga market
Over the past few weeks, I have received inquiries about Axiom Software
leaving the Amiga as reported in the July issue of Video Toaster User.
Let me be the first to say that Axiom Software is NOT leaving the Amiga.
Over the past six months, Axiom Software has published three brand-new
products, all of which have taken large amounts of time and energy to
publish. In addition, Axiom Software has just published its fourth
version of Pixel 3D, Pixel 3D Professional Version 2. All of these
products are Amiga-based and demonstrate a huge commitment to the Amiga.
Here at Axiom Software, and at other software publishers, the average
time between new products is one year. With that in mind, Axiom Software
has just published its fourth product in six months, a record that puts
our money where our mouth is.
As reported in VTU, we have planned for the completion of these four
products for the past year, with Pixel 3D Professional Version 2 being
the final of these four, but NOT our final Amiga product. Everything
stated by VTU is true except for Axiom Software planning its exit from
the Amiga market. We love the Amiga, it's our home, and our customers
have made it possible for us to give them the coolest 3D technology we
know how. We will continue to support the Amiga and all of our faithful
customers. To be completely honest, we at Axiom Software wish we could
program the Amiga for the rest of our lives, after all, it takes
"forever" to learn how to program the thing!
Axiom Software will continue to support the Amiga, but to do this
completely, we must investigate expansion, not moving. We at Axiom
Software are excited about the future, Pixel 3D Professional Version 2
has just shipped and we think its our best product yet! I encourage
anyone who has any questions to call and talk to us toll free
