Also keep in mind Palmer will own the rights to a name, thanks in large part to John Carmack, that is getting a lot of attention. That name can then be commoditized in various different ways to allow supporters and fans to hand over cash.
I get that, but dosn't he still set the price for a single unit to be sold at ?
If so, that is the price I was talking about.
What good would it be, if he gave away units, in the hopes of a "Fan" giving a big donation one day.
No need for me to talk about this anyway...
Palmer is much smarter than me. He'll know how to price it correctly.
