Any ideas on the proper number :roll:

Not sure, maybe Fred has to answer that one. Good question though.
But, I think there are alot more users then even Fred knows about, I'm thinking about companies and such.

Fred could probably provide the registered user count but I doubt anyone knows how many "users" there are.

I imagine some registered users no longer use it and, as good as it is, I would bet there are quite a few "non registered" users.

Probably no way to know.

cheers

yes thankyou for that...

I just wondered what the user base is it must be quite good :?

just wanted to find out how popular compared to other languages...
I guess it is a bit of a daft question :)

I love where Pure Basic is going - powerful and very nice command set
machine code inline assembly, optimisers as well & not forgeting nice Windows GUI commands :roll: :shock: :) :lol: :wink:

I am not sure, but when I joined the community, some years ago, they were probably between 1.000 and 2.000 licensed users.

But I guess actually we are more than 10.000 people.

Fred will tell maybe.

I was really happy to see the growing japaneses participants on the forum and I am sure a lot of people are using licensed software there.

Interesting to see the list of forums users coming from so much countries.

Purebasic is no more a frenchy EECy design environment.

Maybe in some years a subsidiary will open in Seattle ?

I guess this is the first time I invest a few money on something I can use for my whole life.

I changed three times of computer since I bought Purebasic.

But I never changed language.

Much things have changed in my life the few past years, but as far as life allow me to come back on oftware design, I first run Purebasic.

I am really happy with it because I can draw anything I can think to.

Dividing the price by the time I use it make it so cheap !

And never forget that Purebasic is provided with two major components :

- the devolpment tool itself with some adds and goodies
- the community

That's it.

Actual number of french forum participants is 391.

I let you all ladies and guys to list forums you use to visit.

Then we will have a nice list of the visible and underground community ...

Not a good idea ?
