Your prize is a free permanent end-user license for NebulaXLite for any supported platform. Developer licenses are free anyway so for anyone else who contributed to this thread to this point, I'll offer one permanent license at 50% off. Given the economy, maybe that's a new way for us to show our gratitude in these forums? :) Thanks to all.
