I'm pleased to see that my previous rant about problems with Unity3D is now irrelevant. All those problems are fixed. Excellent!
Even better, Unity Indie is now free. The new profiler will also be very useful! Unfortunately its too late to port my current project, so I'll have to wait a bit to try out the new features.

Lost Serial Numbers
I've paid for Homeworld 2 three times.
Each time, I've lost the installation media, or the manual (with the printed serial key).
Wanting to fire it up again, I found the CD, but not the serial key. Bummer. Is the only alternative to search for a crack, or someone else's serial?
I think this is the reason that platforms like Steam or Impulse are so great. You never lose your games, unless the provider goes bust, of course.
