Directory Opus Magellan still available to purchase
« on: October 17, 2007, 04:39:07 PM »
After a recent posting which stated that DOpus Magellan is no longer available to purchase, I decided to contact GPSoft to enquire about the possibility of buying it. The response from Greg Perry was that it is still available to buy at a very reasonable price of $65 AU for a download version.

Please contact Greg using one of the methods on the contact page on the GPSoft web site if you are interested in obtaining a full licensed copy of this great software, and supporting a developer who produced some great Amiga products.

So it appears that there is still no way to purchase DOpus Magellen from anyone

You did read the story didn't you? ;-)

WOW, is that true? I remember Greg, when asked, always redirected such a requests to GuruMeditation who's the current and the sole owner of the Directory Opus Magellan. Greg also added that GPSoftware has nothing to do with Amiga version of DOpus anymore

Well, all I can say is that I contacted Greg and he set up a product code to allow me to pay for the license through the GPSoft web site, and he then emailed me the archives and the serial number. If you have any queries it would be best to contact Greg.

Wow, I never expected such a negative response to this. I thought people would be glad it was still available, rather than complaining about the price. If you think it's too expensive, there is always the option not to buy it :roll:

They stopped updating it ages ago. I think you need to lower the price

They have. I paid a LOT more for this when it was still "officially" available.

At the end of the day, the Amiga is a niche market, which means prices will always be high.

I didn't say that.
