You may have to switch to something else. Word has it that Broderbund,
the makers of FTM, has bought out Parsons Technology, the makers of FO.

I've frequently seen it at Sams (Wholesale arm of Walmart) for
considerably less than the $99. More like $69-79. This is for the
deluxe version with several reference CD's. I bought the FTW program
without the extra CD's for $39 (I think that was what it cost on a
special at Sams). I have since moved to Family Origions as the entry is
easier and the number of types of sources are also greater. I haven't
upgraded to the new one as I only use it for one or two reports by
exporting a Gedcom from FO to FTW on a temporary basis. The New FO v6
does these reports as well, so I may not be using FTW any more. BTW, FO
is about $29 from Parsons.
