Sorry, had other things to do.........

Send it to me and I'll test it.

No, they should be quite common. The CAD places I was at kept pretty up
to date.

Autodesk used a discounted upgrade type approach. At my old company we
would get sent letters saying when the deadline for upgrading to the new
version was, otherwise we'd have to pay full price.

You could save money if you were happy to drag your heals for a few
versions but if you did that there was the risk that clients would send
/ ask for drawings in the newer format or maybe use a feature not
present in older versions (e.g. redline markup on drawings).
