market). >>>
This bit is absolute rubbish. Where are you getting your market data from ?
What segment of the HAT market are you talking about ?
We're the master international republisher for WexTech. (the makers of
Doc-To-Help) I can assure you that Blue Sky are nowhere near here this share
of the market.
We have doubled our sales for Doc-To-Help over the last 12 months. I doubt
that HDK, ForeHelp Doc-To-Help and Help Magician are all surviving on such
paltry pickings.
Try something like 30% in their international market.
