please note that there will not be a Komodo 4.1 release. However to fullfill our promise of Komodo 4 MP, you will be able to get both Komodo 5 SP and MP for the same price you would have payed to get Komodo 4 MP. Simply puchase Komodo 5 SP for the discounted price and you will be able to obtain Komodo 5 MP for free when it's available.

I know that people are anxious for MP but we decided to release Komodo 5 because it was a substantial improvement and we felt that people would appreciate having it sooner rather than later. That is good for you and good for us. That's how this should be. We constructed this to be a very appealing deal, not to screw you.
We do have MP already - it's a version close to Komodo 4 that is functional but does not perform as well as I want it to. I will get that working and then it will be quickly merged into Komodo 5 MP.

The only reason we don't do so is our commitment to Komodo MP; if we released K6 sp first many would doubt that MP would ever come out!
