I started out using an early version of Komodo 4 and, despite random crashes and hangs (especially during debugging) I found it a very useful tool. I was especially pleased that they had a heavy discount for a 'personal' version (1/10 the price of the pro version) and ended us buying a personal edition at home and a pro edition at work. In fact that price structure made up for many of the bugs, crashes and hangs.

However with version 5 they dropped the personal edition and bumped the price of the pro version - I was not happy and resisted upgrading to 5 for several years, despite they had fixed a bug I'd submitted against 4 in 5. I've now upgraded to 5 and it does have a lot of nice new stuff and is a lot more stable than the 4 series was. But I'm still pissed off that they don't offer the personal edition any more, to the extent that I no longer evangalize for Komodo - are you listening ActiveState?

True laziness is hard work
