Rocky, Have to have at least one DVD reader. They do include CD images so you can burn CDs from the DVDs but you would need one DVD reader and a CD writer. The cost of DVD readers is very low these days though. The management of hundreds of CDs versus dozens of DVDs is the catch. For a while, when I received MSDN on CDs I thought I'd have to hire a part time librarian to keep the MSDN CDs in order :o) -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin - Beach Access Software Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 11:46 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] AHOO!!!

The biggest gotcha is that you must promise to develop a product for commercial distribution within 18 - 24 months. There's no renewal at the discounted price after the two years. > > I went with it because the Universal subscription, of course, includes all the .NET stuff. There's also a goodly amount of beta stuff (VS 2005 Beta, .NET 2.0 Beta, FP 9.0 Beta) for what it's worth. The Enterprise editions are the norm in the Universal subscription. 5 licenses, though, not 10. > > But 14 DVDs crammed with stuff!
