Well, I tend to dissagree - The 5.10 version is a fairly substantial
improvement over 5.05a IMHO, and well worth the $40 to upgrade.
With the swap of the marketing of the Amiga C compiler to SAS,
I'm not sure what can be said of Lattice marketing types and their
"promises".  SAS has hired additional tech support staff for the
Amiga C product, as well as more development staff(I think) to
compliment their already intensive development program.  

If providing newer (improved) versions of a product and additional
tech support staff qualifies for "no support" then I guess they
qualify.

Sorry to sound grumpy, but !coffee + am ...
