[AccessD] Slightly OT: Microsoft ActionPack

Action pack is not solely to sales and marketing, but apart from the OS software it also includes demo's and sales/marketing tools.
It's ment for the typical dealer/reseller/network integrator and not for the developer.

Does the MSDN includes OS software like Exchange server, Isa Server, SQL server, Small Business server etc?

I believe MSDN is more expensive too?

Steve,

<<If you don't mind my saying so, I find that a bit curious. MSDN Universal includes everything. Why would you want the Action Pack?>>

  As I said, the Action Pack is geared towards marketing and sales.  It's a different focus.  The only reason software is in there is to help you explore new areas of technology.

Jim,

>> I've been on it a little over two years.  I have a MSDN Universal
subscription as well. <<

If you don't mind my saying so, I find that a bit curious. MSDN Universal includes everything. Why would you want the Action Pack?

>> And to answer your question, no because technically your not buying 
>> the
Developers Edition and the license to distribute.  Could you?  Yes.  What Microsoft care?  Probably not. <<

Thanks for the interp.
