No, not wierd: Adobe prices in the UK are between 60 and 120% heigher that in
the US :
For a plain Flash licence, I priced it: It would cost me the same to:
- Fly to NY from London
- Pay 2 nights in a NY hotel
- Buy Flash from Office Depot or similar
Than to buy from the Adobe.co.uk online store in the UK
It's simple: $450 becomes £450 or €450 convieniently forgetting that 1 $US =
1.6 Euros, or that the UK version is not even translated into "UK English"
("color" is still "color" and not "colour").
In French (but tables are universal): Prices in the US, France and UK with the
product markup in percent and constant euros with the US being the base price:

Hi Josh. Sounds weired. But I guess whoever was helping you mixed up
with Australian dollar verses USD. I do not believe that there is any way
that Australian will pay 90% more unless there are any Australian tax!!!
