Hello,

>>   1.. The upgrade is FREE for all users who registered AmiBroker
> after July 18, 2004 

>Just a bit disappointed

Today is May 29, 2008 isn't it ???
It is FOUR YEARS since your purchase, isn't it ?
And you received 40 NEW VERSIONS (betas plus major ones together)
FOR FREE, haven't you ????

And... you are disappointed for receving FREE upgrades for FOUR years
with literally hundreds of improvements.


With AmiBroker each 0.10 release is major.
Our 0.10 release consist of MORE improvements
than 3 major upgrades of competition.
 
Releases 0.01 are minor. There are TEN minor releases
per one major.

We don't increment using 1.0 increments because
we would be at version 50 right now if we did.

I assume you are joking saying that $99 for 3 major upgrades
is much, because other companies will charge you
for EACH AND EVERY upgrade and the amount would
be MUCH HIGHER.

Tomasz Janeczko
