But without nice, solid license key protection mechanisms in place,
Metrowerks profits have certainly suffered due to rampant piracy.  So,
with the tightly protected CW Studio 9, Metrowerks should see more
legitimate licensees than ever.  Hence, Metrowerks should able to pass
a fraction of these savings/profits on to us developers, by
significantly dropping the price of the toolkit.  

Fair is fair.  How about it, Ron?  Will you take this to the suits? 
Ready to announce a new, more widely affordable price structure?  

Me, it looks like I'll be sitting out this release, and spending the
money on movies, pinball, and pizza.  Wake me in time for CW Studio 10
when G5-specific optimizations are implemented....
