could imagine e.g.:
- old revision/build
- OSX PowerPC (G4/G5) only, no UB/IntelMac support
- no upgrade path to new/further Punch! products
- no service-packs/fixes avail in the future
...

discounting seems to be appropriate then.

Current Turbocad v2 (C3D) is build 654, which should be the same as C3D.

these are the only possible reason, which are a bit scary:
- no upgrade path to new/further Punch! products (IMSI as well???)
- no service-packs/fixes avail in the future (really???)

but as you quoted in the interview to IMSI it should not be.

I think a clarification from Tim would probably solve the whole story,
which is still unclear.
