anywhere to get frontpage at good price?

J

Jason

Looking at purchasing frontpage 2003 in the near future ~ but it's not
cheap! well.. by my perception of the value of a dollar anyway.
Is there anywhere to buy it from that might save me a few cents? or is
it pretty well set at what it is.

You cannot consider your value of the dollar. What you should ask yourself
is _is the price worth it_. In my opinion having started with an unknown
then switching and upgrading since FP 98, it is worth every penny. Also the
learning curve is probably the shortest of the major companies. IMHO :)

Try a college bookstore. They give great student discounts. If you're not
a student then find one to buy it for you.

I'd guess that Microsoft's EULA would require that such a copy NOT be used
for commercial purposes, though.

Due to inflation, it is now 3 cents. ;-)

And people shouldn't drink and drive, speed on the highway, litter, cheat on

their income taxes, read other people's e-mail, eat fatty food, be
over-weight,
dress funny, etc.

So what? When was the last time Microsoft came knocking at your door to
check what you had on your pc and how it was being used?

Since FP 2003 requires activation, that will certainly restrict it. ;-)

woW! certainly got a discussion going there!! :)
the Provantage brings about a $60 saving ~ once it's converted to
present exchange rates ~ not tooo bad! ( us 2 nz )
As for the student thing ~ probably doubtful I could go that way ~
but as far as I'm aware the product is the same ~ so I doubt
activation would be be restricted in any way by identifying me as a
student - I noticed a site here advertising the product.. they had
some cosde beside the cheaper version - I rang up to ask what that
was? and was told the product is identical.. but if your a student
and can prove it - you get it at the lower price.

thanks for your replies thoughts and links~ :)
