New IDL Prices!
type: item
description: I have just heard that IDL is raising prices to PV Wave levels! Unlimited access on a single CPU is going up to $15k Single access on a single CPU is going to $3k I hope this is not true. Such a pricing policy could relegate IDL to the high end specialty market. Given IDL is already developed, it would make sense to attempt to make IDL a wide spread data analysis and visualization standard. If this new pricing policy is true, it seems that IDL's market share will contract rather than expand. This can not be good for the long run.
