Can't They Do ANYTHING Right? - Version: 4.5.1, 11/28/2009 06:43AM PST

Been buying this software since is was started and they have NEVER released a version without multiple bugs (in the Mac or PC versions). Now they send a renewal notice offering special $44.90 two year price. I go to buy it (stupid me) and the price changes to $49.90. When I back out of the purchase screens, I go to complain. Then I note the highest level of Mac OS they reference is 10.5. How ironic a software update tracking business missing this gross error.
I need a product to track my software, but Version Tracker has never been anything but half-baked, and pricey to boot. Someone needs to come-up with an alternative application.
