That's the very thing you're presenting though. A viable business model. You're there to present a viable idea, not how well your gorgeous code works.

My team won a startup weekend here in Santa Cruz. And we didn't have working code, just a nicely made HTML page that looked like a fully fledged site. But we presented it in such a way that made sense from a business stand point and we won because of it.




See my edit:

> Quick edit: Just wanted to say that I see this more as my failing to understand what SW was instead of me blaming SW for not meeting my incorrect expectations. SW is fine but it's just probably not for me.

I now understand this to be the case I just didn't know that going in so for me it was a bit of a disappointment but I have no one to blame but myself and thats the only person I do blame. I do not personally like the way SW does it but that doesn't mean I think they are a bad thing just not for me.
