Yeah I know its obvious you''ll sell way more copies with a publisher, but:
If I sell at $10 for example and keep 80% when selling myself, I make $8 per sale.
With a publisher who gives me say 10%, thats $1 per sale. So I need to know I''d get like 10X the sales. Getting an advance would be very handy though (I only need a few £100 for a new version of windows, non-trial edition of MSVC++ etc)

WRT tech support, I don''t want to do this really. You may enjoy it at first but if your game is actually successful and you have 10 calls a day, you can''t cope with doing other stuff easily.
