I thought I'd see what Adobe UK are charging for upgrading CS3 Web
Design Premium to CS4 - to see if it's been reduced from an arm and a
leg.
Much to my surprise, Adobe is charging ?30 MORE for download delivery
versus physical box shipment - seems the wrong way around to me!

Hi,
The bizarre difference in cost between download/shipped is because
of differences in VAT between Ireland (EIRE) and UK - I can't remember
which way round it is, but either the CD or the download is purchased
from Adobe EIRE...
...although the extra cost for "support & translation" in the UK is
probably rumour, myth or a convenient bit of spin to cover the reason:
We are slaves to a higher market price for goods in the UK. Until the
market demand drops, or we can make our own stuff, we have to keep pay
higher costs, unless we have friends in, or regular flights to, the US -
I don't need translation or support thankyou, English is my first
language so it's quite easy to understand American :)
