     I was wondering if somebody could give me a reason to
upgrade from JPI TopSpeed Modula-2 v2 to v3.  I initially bought
their v1.17 and debugger at the academic discount.  I loved it
and I still think it is an excellent compiler.  When version 2
came out I upgraded to the extended edition.  I think everybody has
heard about v2.

     My problem is that JPI wants $126 to upgrade and I feel like
I am about to throw good money after bad.  After v2 I don't have
much faith in what JPI says about their products.  I have three
options, feel like a fool and upgrade.  Not upgrade and loose all
the money I have already spent, or upgrade and sell the
unregistered package.  I am mad as hell at these people and I
don't want to waste my money like I did before.
