Does a Torque 3D Pro purchase include lifetime updates and support?

Thinking about Torque 3D Pro as a very serious investment in a hobby. I am *not* prepared to produce commercial games in the very short timeframe (not for the next year or two), although I'm hoping I might delve into it more deeply in a couple years down the road.

I might make the purchase of the T3DPro license, but only if it includes both lifetime updates and lifetime support. By updates, from my understanding, T3DPro will be the GG's premier toolset for developing games. But I've seen some four or five major toolsets come from GG, and I do NOT want to make a purchase of this product if some Torque 4D Mega XP Pro is going to come out next year. If I get this, I want it to be the permanent deluxe copy of "all that and a ball of wax", with nothing coming down the line making me consider tossing this one and replacing it for some "new and improved" replacement with a separate cost.

Am I good to go?

On the "before you were born" part I can only say that neither of us knows the age nor background of each other and that's probably a good thing (although I suspect our background and age are quite close). Mine was a rhetorical question (answer: of course you're not naive or inexperienced, but your word choice in that phrase came off rather silly), not a deliberate insult, so I hope you didn't take it that way.

I do disagee with your opinion on the generally understood purpose of a pre-order; I think it would be best if we leave that that way as well. If I get into it any further we'll be arguing in circles.

As the OP'er, I get it guys. I disagree with some points and agree with others. To each his own.
