I've been looking at the difference of online software purchases, and hardware for that matter, and buying at the local store and one can save a lot buying from the web. Advantages also seem to be no sales tax in some cases. Disadvantage you have to wait and it maybe more hassle to do a return. I currently am shopping for Dragon Systems Naturally Speaking V 3 Preferred Edition. It costs about $179 at Compusa, but $157.95 from Beyond.com. Still, if they have it at Costco, they have the best prices, but they have no dictation software at this time. Beyond.com also has an interesting listing of best sellers if you want to know what's hot. beyond.com I also tried egghead.com but they offer older titles at reduced prices. Again, I think in the days of falling prices on PC's, we are still seeing lots of unit sales. Seems like a winning story for software vendors. Any recommendations on the best place to buy software online? Regards, Mark PS Encarta 99 is free with a rebate on beyond.com
