Bill,
It's an interesting situation, isn't it?
Just to clarify my position: I'm not BY ANY MEANS knocking the hobbiest. I
started as one. All I'm saying is that if you purchase a piece of software
intended for a professional application — as contrasted with, say, a game
— you should expect to pay a somewhat higher price. It's great that it's
not thousands (or even many hundreds) of dollars for a product like
Imagine.
What got me started was not the application, but the idea of ripping
Impulse over the cost of the upgrade. And all I was saying was that by
comparison to the marketplace they're playing in, they're practically
giving the product away.
