I am currently running build g48 and trust me it's worth the 20 bucks.
honestly it's $20.00 not $80.00 or more that MS charges for minor bug fixes.
A Lot of work is going into X. As for 9.1, 9.2 ......... minor fixes are usually free but you DIDN'T! get 8.6 to 9 for free! nor did you get from 8 to 8.5 free! any time major work is done Apple HAS charged for it. There is a long long future ahead of X and NOT EVERy update will be a full CD and require you to pay some sort of handling charge... Apple built the software update system into the OS for a reason but it would be outrageous for most people to download 2 FULL CDs... even on broadband. T1 yes or high end cable/dsl maybe but the world is not completely on high speed yet so this isn't practical. besides would you want to sit and wait for a download slot in amongst the thousands that now run OS X? let alone the slow connection due to all those concurrent downloads??? It's just not practical. Stop whining grow up it's $20.00 even a kid with a good paper route could afford it.
Cheers
