    I know it is hard for some to understand but we do need to find some way of reimbursing developers for their valuable time. Capitalist methods do work to stimulate people to take time from their main income source and divert their time to creating for us all. Some sort of medium of exchange assists that. Assuming that you are American (just a guess), you should be familiar with the concepts.

    I expect to pay to be able to create 64bit binaries and do some of the advanced stuff that I am expecting that TB will enable us to do, otherwise we can just continue to write code in VB6 and wait for communism to take over.

    Update: I don't remember the correct price for VB6 in 1999 but I have a number in my mind of approx. 250 GBP. That equates to approx. 550 GBP today. At 26 GBP per month for TB, it feels a little expensive (I think I'd be more than happy with ten quid or so) but you can obtain the community edition for free and upgrade when you need to create your binaries.
