...but would you still buy them if he was shouting right in your face
as you are trying to look at something else?
Stylus Studio could be a great product, but the popup ads that obscure
what you're reading really give it the wrong image. They need to
rethink their marketing - popup ads, spam emails about "new video
tutorials" and seemingly endless home furnishings style sales (just
checked, one is on at the moment: "STYLUS STUDIO SUMMER SAVINGS
SPECTACULAR") seem like an odd way of selling an IDE, and an outdated
way of selling anything.
My advice, if they're interested, is get rid of their marketing dept.
and make the home edition free.
Check out their purchase page: http://www.stylusstudio.com/buy/
...even that has got a popup on it! Unbelievable.
