The only profit that THINK is reaping by distributing upgrade patches through
Usenet (i.e., free of charge, quickly, and easily available), is my esteem
for their company and those like it.  I wish every company could be as
dedicated as THINK is in providing the most up to date support for their
product as they do.  What I don't understand is how anyone could object
to this...
