I just installed the update and had the same result you did, Derek.

It is rather disappointing that virtually nothing is happening with Brainstorm. I had spoken with the new developer back in the spring, I believe, and had the impression he was planning to make some significant changes. At the time I suggested he tend to the web site and user forum, because seeing no activity gives the impression that the product is dead or dying. He seemed to agree with me, yet nothing has happened. I sincerely hope this isn’t another instance where someone well intentioned takes over development of an application then finds himself overwhelmed, only to allow the application to wither on the vine.
