I agree completely! Last December, I bought their suite of three tools (Xara Extreme 4, Webstyle 4, and Xara 3D 6) for $119 as I recall (special for the holidays) and it was money well spent, IMHO. I liked it to the point where I decided not expense it to my company and just license it myself (so I can keep it eventually!)
I think the combined software is still available from less than the total of all three. However, for me, the Webstyle product is not one I would continue to use, but the others are very useful indeed.

The offer above is for the previous version, for only $19, available till the end of the month. You won't believe what this product can do.
