On the one hand, market leader CB is able to provide good marketing channels and market penetration, even for older software versions. For example, some weeks ago I saw a special edition of Shredder 7 sold for 9.00 Euro or so in a big department store. The salesperson told me that it is selling pretty good. On the other hand, CB people mainly concentrate on Fritz. Fritz here, Fritz there, everywhere Fritz. I don't want to question the programming skills of Frans Morsch, but his programmer colleagues might feel like the second driver or even the replacement driver in a Forumula-1 car, who don't get the same support and the same conditions like no. 1 driver and thus can't show that they are on par with him.
