Okay, this is gonna sound extreme, I know... <g>

How about the latest version (X3) for $0?

Actually, it's $65 with a $65 mail-in rebate, for product bought by 
8/29...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832106167

At that price, might be worth a try.  Plus, it'd (morally, at least) 
legitimize you running *any* previous version you obtained the bits 
for, should you decide to.
