Actually there IS an upgrade offer from Vue 2 to Vue 3. That was 99 pounds, not 99 dollars though. I think it works out to around 149 dollars. Probably not what you wanted to hear. :( I keep hoping Varian or Guitta or someone else who's been around and using Vue from the beginning will show up to offer some Vue 2 information for you. As for me, I never got Vue until version 3.1 came out.
