sure, that's my point - especially as as I am software developer (and after
work I am used to whip myself )...
So according to your wisdom when buying a software you cannot relay on it
(event on basic functionality like selecting right data from databse).
Instead you have to pay for constant upgrades to new versions.
And install them with new features and new bugs to find one day that 2+2=5.
Ok - I will try to pomote this model in our company
(but I think that's a privliege of huge enterprises)
