Didn't New Zealand role back Software Assurance to 20% like Australia, US
and the UK have done?

BTW, I know what Software Assurance is. Just looks like Kyley was having a
bad day because given the post on SA and the outrageous rant from the post
afterwards (I'm still trying to get up off the floor after that gem -
especially "The brain is an excellent tool for all the other stuff." - Quote
of the year that one)

Good to see some traffic on the list though :-)

Software assurance is probably not geared towards single developers that use
the PRO version, then again - you can't please everyone.

Software assurance is 30% of the product price. Software upgrades are much
more expensive.

IMHO. Surely using software assurance is simply a way of either 1/
Indicating the product will not live up to expectations 2/ Doubling the
price, but making it seem reasonable.

If only the leaky home issue had something like Builders Assurance  .

We could sell a house for 150,000 and for an extra 80,000 your builders
assurance will qualify you for a dry, sound home.. hmmmmm the possibilities
of escaping good quality promises are endless.
