Hi, Jim.

Now you have my curiosity peaked. You have regenerated two questions. 

1. If the build difference isn't the mitigating factor as to why it isn't a 
straight upgrade, what is the reason? Not that the uninstall and reinstall with 
a backed up config is difficult or overly time consuming, but it would by nice 
to understand.

2. I am now more curious as to why SP1 can't be applied to the eval version. 
From a marketing perspective I consider this the be a huge problem. (Give the 
potential customers a piece of software that is broken and can't be fixed (at 
least easily) to evaluate.

Thanks
Kevin

Actually, you're both right and wrong.
The ISA eval version is a different build than the release, but that's not
the gating factor.
You'll notice that when you apply hotfixes that the ISA version reported is
also changed.
Take a look at your version column after applying a hotfix or SP1.  The last
digit set changes to indicate your hotfix level.
