Hi folks,

I just came across this email in the Condor users mailing list and
thought it might be of interest.

Jason,

Your web site is missing two important pieces of information
1) pricing (one expects it to be simple just like Amazon's)
2) features walkthrough (the "tour" link doesn't lead to a tour)

I feel that both should be available to visitors *before* requesting an 
account from you.

Jan Ploski
