I'm not Mr. Lee, but I want to comment.  So I will.

If you believe the products are crappy, don't buy them.  If you feel
they're overpriced, ditto.  OTOH, if you want to encourage a company
to continue to maintain a program you use all the time, pay the money.

Hell, I have an alias to Word 5 in my Startup Items folder.  I need it
active _always_.

Yes, very much so.  I think that Apple could learn a lot from what
happened to AT.
