$69 for an upgrade isn't really what I call a low cost upgrade.
I went out and bought the 2.15 compiler for my Mac... not for work,
just to play around with.  Now that my copy is 4 weeks old, I have to
spend another $60 for an upgrade to fix the problems with the doc
and code I just got?  Even Microsoft has a policy on helping new owners
get FREE upgrades (manuals and all) if you've bought an outdated
version of their product in the last 6 months or so.  I think THINK
has a LONG way to go before it's successful in the mass-appeal market
if they think 'only $69' is good enough for their customers.  Guess I'll
save my $69 and see what Borland must have up their sleeve soon.
