Logic games

I've long been a fan of a number of the games from Everett Kaser Software. They're small little logic-puzzle type games, and make an excellent way to wake up your brain in the morning. So much of a fan that I shelled out $90 a few years ago for his "All Products CD", and not regretted it.
Well, not regretted it much. In the intervening years he's put out several new games, and I want those, too. But at $20 a game, it's more cost-efficient to buy the All Products CD, and I felt a little like I was getting gypped by having to buy it again when I've already bought it once.
So I sent him an email this morning, and got a reply back this afternoon. While he doesn't have an official "upgrade" price for the CD, he did offer to cut the price for me provided I send him a copy of the email when I order it (to remind him, which I can understand. And while he didn't ask for it, I do plan on sending him the license key from my previous purchase, to prove I'm not trying to scam him.) Now I'm even more of a fan.
If you like logic games or short diversions that aren't as mind-numbing as Solitaire, definitely go check out http://www.kaser.com . Every game has a free downloadable version that has a very limited puzzle set, so that you can try it and see if you like it before shelling out cash. My personal favorites are Sherlock, Honeycomb Hotel and Occam's Quilt, but everyone I've ever shown the games to ends up liking different ones best.
