Al,

Do you have a maintenance program for getting new tools?  Like if I bought
TAA tools and wanted the updates in a year or so, would I have to be on
maintenance?

The reason I asked this on list is to see if, knowing his new customers
run newer versions of the OS, he still dumbs down his code to support
people running ancient versions of OS.

Most TAA Tool customers are at V4R5 or V5R1.  Very few at V4R4 or older,
or
at V5R2.

BTW, V5R2 is an absolutely outstanding release.
