I voted! Lets do this, I am good for a copy.

how much is it? i'd try it at the right price.
It's free if you're fine with nagware, they expect you to buy it if you like it, but it's essentially an unlimited trial, no features limited, just an annoying popup every few saves.
Currently you can pay $70 for a licence (it's a bit high, but I think they're just expecting very few people to buy it), and you're currently limited to paying via Paypal.

I'm a huge fan of Sublime Text! I have used it on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux!

I know that a large part of the Bitcoin community are developers of some sort, and for those who program, Sublime Text is a popular choice for a highly extensible text editor, with many plugins.

One problem with Sublime Text, is that the only payment option when purchasing it, is PayPal  Cry

I've written a large, descriptive post on their suggestion system explaining why they should accept Bitcoin. It would be great if people could up-vote and comment on the suggestion so that it can be easily seen by the company.

I've also made a reddit post on /r/Bitcoin if anyone wants to up-vote that, or comment on it:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1hz5ht/we_need_votes_to_get_sublime_text_to_accept/

It shouldn't be too hard for us to get the post onto the front page, these are the current highest rated suggestions:


To get anywhere on the front page of suggestions/ideas at the current time, is around ~400 votes, or to the top of the front page, we need  ~1800 votes.

It also helps if you retweet my post on twitter:

EDIT: Wow. Just a day later and I find that we've already hit 317 votes, we're pretty close to getting onto the front page of suggestions! Thanks for all the support guys
Edit: and as I say that, we come to a standstill... 2 days later stuck at around 350 votes, and the reddit has barely budged from 180 upvotes.
