Richard,

This is one of the rudest posts I've seen in a long time.

Runtime Revolution is a business. Their mission is not to provide you 
with a free development environment forever which it sounds like they 
have done for you so far. Unless they can generate sales they will not 
be able to stay in business and provide any tools to anyone.

There is a $75 special on the Express version which is good until the 
end of this month. If that is still too much money, (and I can 
appreciate that it might be for you now) then you can continue to use 
your free 2.0.1 version forever and be ready to buy 2.1 when you get a 
job.
