What Are We Doing With the Extra $10?
Tuesday, May 6, 2008 by Zoomba | Discussion: Internet
Today we announced that the subscription price for WinCustomize was going to go up $10/year from $20 to $30. Now, of course we had to come up with a good justification for this, something that would fool the sheep of the forums into believing we did this for their own good and that they're getting the better end of the deal.
But, just between you and me? Complete BS.
As some of you may know, today's Angie's birthday, so as a gift the company bought her a new car...
So that would have probably accounted for a $2.50 increase per subscription, but some of us were looking at that car and asked "What about us?" After some haggling and stomping of feet and numerous rude gestures, we sold upper management on the idea of the Stardock Porsche Fleet...
Each, of course, added $2.50 to the unit cost of a WinCustomize subscription.
That's why the subscription is now $10 more per year. Gotta pay for the fancy cars!
Now, I know some of you are probably getting worked up about this turn of events, especially considering how we told you it was really about the free skins, and not the Porsche fleet. To calm your nerves, here's a serene picture of some geese...
That's right, here at Stardock HQ we have a fleet of Porsches AND cute little baby geese!
No kidding.

Let's do the Time Warp again
It's just a jump to the left
then a step to the right
you put your hands on your hips
and pull your knees in tight
but it's the pelvic thrust
that really drives you insane
