It's the "buy Pro with SA and use the Enterprise features for free" thing that doesn't make sense to me. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with it if it's true, I just want to make sure that my CDW rep isn't smoking crack. What you're saying seems to indicate that he's telling it straight, which is pretty cool. Kurt On Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 13:46, Art DeKneef <[email protected]> wrote: > True.
