EG: $155 from New Egg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16837102071 or you can try eBay or you can try a more off the wall outfit : $78 for full version (I certainly can't vouch for them though) http://www.abovegroundsolutions.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID =8 or Google your own quotes. _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
