Oh, absolutely.  All I'm saying is that I think most
people who have already spent their buying or
upgrading budget for current Adobe releases are
not going to be viable customers for this pricing
and upgrade policy.  You might have done better
by introducing TCS at the same time as a new
version of at least one of its components.

For example, if I had already budgeted $458
for FM and Acrobat Pro upgrades (actually, I would
probably have chosen Acrobat 3D, since we are an
AutoCAD shop, so call that $598), and the TCS upgrade
price came along *before* I spent it, there's a chance
I might have been willing and able to go back to my
budget overseers and squeeze out an extra $400 per
person for the suite.  But once the $598 was spent,
*another* $999 to buy a suite that contains SW
we've only recently bought is out of the question for
this year, and probably for next year as well (we don't
upgrade *anything* around here *every* year).

What I might need and what might save me time or
work does not always align itself with what I can get
the budget for this year... or next.

Hi Gene,
I think each person's situation is going to be different.
