I've been enviously eyeing EE for a while, and vacillating between EE and WP... but I think this will prod me into making a decision! I'm aware (as all others should be, too) that maintaining and updating an EE blog or blogs over time is gonna require cash. The guy that makes EE (Rick with pMachine) isn't doing this promotion out of the goodness of his heart ;). But at least he's always been forthright and honest about fees for his products and services, and that's the most important thing for me. Wow, thanks so much for posting this!

There are alot of old school MT users out there, far too many to give them all a license. I certainly agree with people who help support MT and expand it. Actually, I also think beta testers should get something too, not a free license but maybe a discount or a recently updated key just like what was given for TypeKey. I'm not saying that because I was beta tester, I wasn't as active as some but there were some like Jay Allen who was awesome and helped everyone. Sorry but I don't think the last one is realistic.

Getting ready to install it. I currently have 4 blogs and had donated for each one. I also donated for every upgrade. Just feel its time to weigh my options here. I got my free copy last night.

Already have a test blog up and imported one of my MT blogs over. The import wasn't without issue and I may need to work on it to get things perfect, but I must say that I am impressed with it just the same. I managed to snag a free license last night.
