Subject:Where to order software? From:Karen Kay <karen -at- WORDWRITE -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 12 Feb 1998 10:14:37 -0800
I'm going to be needing a bunch of software--my major investment of
the year--and I'm wondering where people order their software from, to
keep costs down?
This kind of thing should be in the archives because I know it's been
discussed in the past. I did search, but all I found was suggestions
that new writers get academic discounts. This isn't an option, but I
also don't want to pay an arm and a leg.
