BRP gets converts from D&D, I don't think D&D gets many converts from BRP. And that says a lot. I truly belive BRP could be the game for the masses, just like D&D is now. It all depends on support, availability and marketing. But, as we can't expect Chaosium to do much on the marketing bit, I guess the fanbase have to do that. I usually buy all my rpg-stuff online (cheaper & faster) but the new BRP stuff I will get from my local store, have them order it so they take it in - so it's more visible and hopefully more people will try it. I thinking of gaming on a rpg convention here too, to spread the word.
Triff.
