For your information, the $900 is for version 2.0, which was released just
a few days ago.  And that is the list price.  I do not think that a lot
of people buy at list price.  A few weeks ago, I saw CorelDraw on sale
for $399 at a local shop, and that was their regular price (list was $795),
and this was for version 1.2 .  So I do not think that anybody will spend more
than $450-500 for the new release. (funds are in Canadian dollars.)
