So charge more for removing even more features. Call it Zen instead of Pro.

charge more for the zen version, add extra features for the cheaper version.

You're joking obviously, but I wonder if this has ever been successfully applied in some form or other.

Sony and other computer manufacturers will charge you more to deliver the computer _without_ the "bonus" software they usually include.

(Yes, it's probably a matter of the bonus/bloatware/crapware makers paying the manufacturer to include it vs. customers paying more to not. Flip side is a lot of that stuff _is_ useful, but many users just don't want it there to start with.)

Good example.

I've just realized I saw something in my line of work too. One of our customers is planning to sell a premium version of their product that has their logo removed.
