Given the maturity of the tool, the breadth of functionality, plugins, scriptability, etc. these are petty money for what IDA Pro has to offer to a professional that has to do Reverse Engineering for a living.

I do agree that for a tool used for a hobby it is expensive, but for hobbyists there are other, simpler tools that could be used.

Absolutely agreed, I just thought it was a bit of an expensive suggestion for someone thinking about getting back into the hobby.
