An excellent question - maybe our friends at NI(UK) could give us an
answer?

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?

Simon
