I mailed in the $15 upgrade fee way back; when they got stuck in quality
assurance, they refunded my $15 and apologized for having cashed the
check before thay had shippable product, and promised a free copy of the
product as a way to make amends. I thought that was very classy, but
seemed a little suicidal. So yes, I got a free upgrade.

In the mean time, as I said, I have bought Disk Express (the old
version) and DiskFit, so I may not ever use MacTools. (Unless, of
course, my hard disk dies ... touch wood!).
