I realize the factors that go into determining the upgrade path and costs. You don't know yet when you'll release, you don't know what it will actually cost to complete Unity, etc.
But if I knew with certainty that, if I bought Ultimate today, 100% of the content that I bought with Ultimate would carry over for free into Unity and exactly what the upgrade to the equivalent of Ultimate under Unity would cost, I suspect that I would buy an Ultimate license now.
I know SmiteWorks has a good rep for taking care of its customers, but I've also seen companies who make people who bought the last version less than a month before the upgrade's release pay full price for the new version. I'm not interested in taking that risk.
Again, for what it's worth...
I am looking forward to the release of Unity!
