Thats a great story , thanks :) … honestly I’m almost enjoying more seeing people here sharing their stories and giving encouragement than the small amount I made :).

Can I ask , was it like a lot of money ? Like, enough for a really good vacations :)?

It was, for a while. It could have been much much more but I was just a nerdy engineer with no idea of marketing and full of idealism in my head. I asked for $2K for a perpetual license for any number of machines in the enterprise. I could have easily asked for $5K per year. That was a missed opportunity.
Still, 2k in the 90’s , that’s really something :) … thanks for the details
