An excellent question - maybe our friends at NI(UK) could give us an answer?
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Simon Whitaker Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 2004 9:41 AM To: Info-LabVIEW List Subject: Buying LabVIEW abroad Hi folks, Here in the UK, the Full version of LabVIEW costs 1685 UK pounds. In the US, it costs $1995, = c. 1100 UKP at the prevailing exchange rate. Even supposing we have to add VAT at the prevailing UK rate, this only takes the price up to c. 1300 UKP. So, is there any reason at all why I can't buy LabVIEW in the US and use it in the UK? I'm sure the marketeers at NI have some reasons they trot out in response to such enquiries, but seriously - why not? Anyone in the UK (or anywhere else in the world with a favourable exchange rate) done this? Any problems?
