Digital,
You make good points. (As has eskendir) Clearly, Outlaw needs to look at the opportunity costs of continuing with the current design versus a change. If changing the design creates additional costs and takes them to a level they feel jeopardizes their business model, costing sales, they would be making an error in changing the design. However, as I have looked at this from a business standpoint in all of my comments, and, if you look at other forums, clearly there are sales being lost that may be captured by sprucing up their looks. Whether there are enough to warrant changes, I don't know. They have to make that call.
By the way, I'm not keeping score. That's for Outlaw to do. I was just pointing out that "huge response" was not what it was being purported to be.
