If it only took a mere 1,000 people for it to be profitable, than I'm sure
that Wish would still be around (of course, that's assuming they paid $120k
for that equipment; if they paid $1.2M financed by maxing out their credit
cards then that's a different story). There are other costs to consider:
labor costs (unless we hire "volunteers" hahahaha), overhead (pool table in
our posh offices), marketing ($tratics costs dough, yo), and interest
payments (1.99%* APR for the first six months!). But it would be fun,
though.

Wall Street Journal ever and adding 29.99%.

That could be a bargain at twice the price :). I know they couldn't hold
up with 10K users... but what if you just had 1k users. At a mere 8 bucks
a month, and considering probably 2-3k per month is rack space and
bandwidth leasing.... you are still talking about 5k per month return on a
120k investment.. not including your development time, but hey.. it is your
game. That's a 50% ROI annually... now, if only I had capital... and some
coding skill... and an idea.... yeah, then I'd be set.
maybe we could all pitch in and make an Autoduel Online server. Get
Logitech to throw in some gear and dough and we could 'specifically
support' their steering solution :).
