I don't find this argument compelling, especially
when it comes to high-end software. I think people making
these kinds of decisions *weigh* price, but I don't think
it is their most important criteria. Support, I would
think, is MUCH more important to them.

I'd ask your ITTVIS sales rep. They probably want to
get the good news out. :-)

Cheers,

David
