FACT:
Well, no, they really DON'T charge for the upgrade.  They have
a BBS (and don't send mail asking for the number: it's in your
documentation) where you can, for the price of a 'phone call,
download the latest and (allegedly) greatest version.

OPINION:
But I don't think it should be posted to the binaries newsgroup
(although it would be nice if _something_ would show up there soon :-).
