Dang, mIRC actually turned 30 in February. Crazy. Even though I no longer use mIRC, I'm glad I bought a license back in 2008. It was $20 then, and it's $19.95 today. Somehow, despite inflation it has gotten 5 cents cheaper 😅

That's why I paid for the license in 2008, I was earning pretty good money by then, even though. I also paid for some other software like Fraps ($37) and Winrar ($52) around that time hehe. It's not like it's that expensive either when you consider they're lifetime licenses.
Which reminds me, I should start donating more to open source projects I use now that I've switched to linux.
