It depends on how many upgrades you skip. I got on board with WinFin2.0.1, then 3.52, then '97 and then 2K3. I spent $249 fo the first, and $149 (or something like that) for each other upgrades. Total investment: $700. Had I purchased every upgrade for $99, I would have paid over $1,000. Each time I waited until a major number of new features had accumulated to make the upgrade worthwhile, and I've never once been disappointed -- each move was a real joy to behold, including the last one. And this approach makes it easier to skip bad versions like '98 (copy protection) and 2K2 (buggy; or was it 2K1?). -- David W.
