Its a perfect reason to suggest that anyone buying Delphi now gets
Maintenance!!!! Its around 30 or 40% I know, but.... It means you get the next
one free.

Two things I'll say to that Tony:
1) Perceived value: you believe it has not enough value to you, so look more
closely at it and have a look at what you actually want in a product. Once you
have done that:
2) Talk to the people at the office. Always, Always, Always talk to the people
in the office.
Inprise in the US obviously believe that for the Enterprise developer, the
Enterprise version does have enough value to justify the cost. What we (Inprise
NZ) have to do is convince you that it also does and provide a realistic pricing
mechanism for you to actually get the software.
