This parallels my experiance with Ultra C V1.0. Unfortunately for me, I
picked up Ultra-C last year on a special deal which Microware was offering.
I paid $499 for it, I understand the regular price is $999. I called my
Microware salesman a few weeks ago and found that a V1.1 upgrade would
cost me $395!!!!! I guess that is a good price if one paid $999 for V1.0,
but it sucks for me to have to pay just $100 less than what I paid for the
original just to get an upgrade. An upgrade which sounds like does not
fix the original problems. That is, consistently larger binaries and
much longer compile times, and for what?
