General / Re: Workstation for Hire - 256 GB RAM dual 8core @2,7 GHz

Set the price however you like it. In our case (which does not seem to be the same as yours despite your protestations and "pay-it-forward" speeches), we were really trying to offer a service to the community. If I recall we even discounted your job by a significant amount.
Let's keep in mind what you just said in your last post in this forum thread:
JUST because im not want go down and create competition, im set i so that if one of us is overloaded or with long reconstruction front that the other can help clients and not steal clients.....
Let's take a look at this email which I saw only because a potential "client" accidentally contacted you from the forums looking for us. When he eventually emailed us your response was still there in the email thread.
Client's Email:
Hello,
I follow the Agisoft's Forum and would like to know if in this e-mail I could talk to Mr. Wishgranter. My interest is in data processing using the Workstation presented by N.Purple (http://www.agisoft.ru/forum/index.php?topic=650.0).
I await your response
What was your response?

Hello contact him here [my-email]
Im personaly will have even better workstation for processing data, a 2x8 core 2,7 GHZ with 256 GB RAM - up to 384 GB in few weeks - , currently im awaiting delivery of RAM modules and GPUs... price will be even litle better.....
We will be operational in max 7 days.....
Will you need frequently need reconstruct data ? becasue we will give progressive prices to returrning clients.....
To me this doesn't seem much in line with your altruistic, community-loving, spiel. To me, it sounds a bit tacky and yes, as one poster pointed out: cut-throat. I almost emailed you about this email thread that I wasn't supposed to see at the time then but decided to let it slide until seeing this post.
Anyway, our contribution of services to you and the rest of community was really just that. Currently we're too busy and frankly this whole situation has soured us somewhat on wanted to help.
