Now that is a price that I would pay, as I'm still embroiled on the last time I bot Office 95. Now let's quit talking about his until the pooch can load up on some software. -:)

Bob, double yikes is right. I mean SF has a high cost of living but Chicago ain't exactly Sioux City. This software pricing thing is getting curiouser and curiouser. I am however starting to warm up to the notion that these little affairs are worth checking out. Tim A.--I can see the "influencer and low overhead" things but I didn't get the idea that this robert austin group was anything more than a twice a month swap meet as opposed to IT professionals at some fancy do. Course with my credentials as tech maven of the Q thread, those boys will probably just being throwing their goods at me knowing how damn near everybody is just hanging on my every word. heh, heh, heh.

Bob, I recently purchased a laptop with Office 97 Pro pre-installed. Only problem was it doesn't have all the applications that Office 97 Professional Edition has (e.g., Access, etc.). So I had to fork out $225 to upgrade. Isn't it great that MSFT has all these options? Just in case you don't need EVERYTHING to be productive in the Office environment. Must be a space saving tactic. Wouldn't want to take up too much space on your hard drive. :) Greg B.
