Mike,
when I wrote that message asking whether Impulse envisioned the constant
upgrade program as a substitute for honest-to-goodness bug fix releases, I
_did_ wonder whether my tone would be interpreted as more strident than was
meant to be. Looks like it was.
No, I haven't received Imagine yet. I haven't had a chance to experience any
bugs firsthand. The goal of my message was to pick up, not on reported bugs,
but on a possibility I saw, based on a reply of yours, that Impulse might not
send out any bug fixes, but rather impose their constant upgrade program on all
users wishing to receive a bug-free product.
Since then, I've been able to read your replies, and I must admit that for
every feature that didn't make it into Imagine 3.0, another, unnanounced, did.
A balance of some sort has been struck. I may grumble, but I'll probably wind
up on the constant upgrade program.
Blaq!
