My upgrade form said that checks will be cashed upon receipt, but that
credit cards would be charged upon actual product shipment.

Let's hope they are reasonable about sending patches and/or fixed
binaries to folks who aren't on Dial, the Source or CompuServe!  Bugs
are inevitable.  I worry about getting the fixes.  

As far as I am concerned, the $75 will be worth it just to get a
faster LINK.  If only it could do nested overlays like PLINK.
Unfortunately, PLINK is even slower...
