Yes that true and very sad.  We purchased DWB2.0 in June '90, and
it will still cost us 15k to upgrade to 3.1! What could possibly 
justify the cost to upgrade from 2.0 to 3.1? From the document
I have gotten (re: posting to this group) all I can see is a few
new cute features, but nothing of substance.   Someone explain what
DWB 3.1 can do that I can't with 2.0 and a bit of net software?
