Somebody out there is just not listening! And I think that’s rude. Plain and simple rude! Did I not already blog about the annoyances of upgrades and re-releases? Yes, I did! Here’s the link. And allow me to quote myself: "But that isn’t enough. Upgrading products to get my money is one annoyance, but there’s also the [...] If you’ve talked to me much in the past few years, you know that I’m really, really, really sick of upgrading things.
