Most certainly is. I just recently persuaded two people in Japan to
buy it. (Which makes me probably accountable for a rather large share
of XY-WIN sales in the last business year, I guess :-) )
About how much, I am happy to report that TTG has learned that lesson
from Microsloth: owning any other company's softo entitles you to buy
theirs as "upgrade"; in this case for about 150 Dollars, less than
a taxi ride home from Roppongi.
