I agree . Although I really don't like the new registation system I pre-ordered my copy yesterday. The worst thing that can happen is it could cause nothing but trouble and I will have wasted 179$ . But I trust that Curious Labs isn't stupid enough to throw something out that could put them out of business if it doesn't work , because if they do they can be certain that they have lost MY business and probably other peoples as well . On one point I disagree , Curious Labs and other software companies need to remember that the customer ALWAYS comes first and they should always try to give thier customers "what they want when they want it" . I work for BOSCH making car parts and that point is always on our minds . One of our customers is General Motors and believe me when they call and tell us to jump, we say "how high ?"
