I aggree 100%. If a person is purchasing software that is advertized as
Beta or pre-release, they should know what there getting into. If a company
is selling pre-release or beta software, they owe it to the customer to
provide free and timeley updates untill the software has reached a "shipping
version".
Being a person who own's several NewTek products, I feel they have done a
good job of providing these upgrades.
