I registered my Red Ryder with the understanding that nominally priced
(e.g. $5, or free for downloading) upgrades would be the policy for all
eternity.  Now it turns out that the upgrade costs half as much as the 
original registration.  $20 is not much, but the principle of the thing 
rankles me.

Does this price include a printed manual?  If so, then it would
be reasonable, as the previous understanding included the manual
coming on the floppy, and each user printing it out himself.

Are all the bugs fixed?  Can you kermit a text file to a unix
system without losing the newlines?
