So dump the M$ "upgrades" and use the money on better things -- shouldn't
be hard to do.  I think CCS' support policy sucks too, but so far they
have not shown any inclination to change it.  When mine runs out I dont
know if I'll renew or not, or just wait for the next major version.

At least they're not as bad as one software vendor I deal with at work.
If your support lapses and you try to get support later on, they charge
you for the entire period you were without support too, PLUS a 25%
penalty.  Guess who is at the top of our list of software to find a
replacement for?
