No, But If you made much profit and rely on BlueCove for commercial
use it would be nice if you support BlueCove.

This is current limitation we can solve with small money:
- We need to have commercial compilers from Microsoft to build
BlueCove for 64 bit windows platform. Visual Studio 2008 Standard
Edition: ~$299

This is current limitation we can solve with bigger money:
- Technical support contract from BlueSoleil.
- Technical support contract from Broadcom.
