I just got my upgrade notice on Monday, and that was forwarded from my
old address, so I know ONE notice has been sent, presumably other
registered LSP owners will soon get their's.

"$50!?"  Why not?  It is an excellent product--that's cheap!  

Do you know how many Macintosh programmers there are out there?  It is
a small, specialized market.  By (argueable) rights a great program
like LSP should cost 6 times MORE than (something like) Illustrator
88, not 6 times LESS.

So why is everybody complaining so much?  Here we are having fun with
the greatest computer ever, using what has to be among the best
development environments ever, and grousing about $50.

Really!
