How long has the current version of the board been out? We're concerned about spending 160 bucks for the board and then in a month or so a new (better 4.X) version is released and we'd be stuck with the old version... :(

Thanks.

does`nt happen that way m8 - if a new version comes out you just download it and upgrade.

Well that's the best news we've heard all day :) I guess since their other pricing is so out of line that we just assumed that they'd charge for each release :surprised: We're jumping for joy they don't. THANKS :)

So out of line? Don't follow you there considering we are priced less than almost every one of our competitors :)

With a leased license, you pay 85USD a year to use the software.
With an owned license, you pay 160USD, and you have support forever, and access to the new versions for 12 months. After this time, you can opt to renew the download access for 30 USD. It is optional. We will release any major security fixes in the forums along with the full package which requires download access :)

I know people who bought a vB1 license, and are now using vB3, and have only renewed their members area access 2-3 times in 5 years.
