What you suggest, sounds like one of the best ideas yet.  If I were Ed, I'd 'go
for it', especially as the official realease of Rebel For Windows is not till
some time in the next century! (though, the download of the unoficial Windoz
version is set for some time sooner, rebel10 buyers already get that).

To tell you the truth, I don't know if the human race will even be around for
the 'Newmanium' (Seinfeld fans), er, I mean, Millenium.

Who will even remember what all the fuss was about then?  But it is a fair
solution, & I think it does solve the problem for Ed, of amortizing his cost
over a long-range time period! :-)
