Why, they're *selling* that old product.  You can't tell from the sales
literature if this is the same old release 2.4 the old uPort released
TWO years ago, but there's no indication that it's not.  Price is $649
for the 2-user version and $898 for the unlimited version.

Amazing.

It does appear, that they're throwing in DOS-Merge for this price, but,
as I recall, this never worked anyway...
