I know this offer: It's named IDLLAB20 (only usable for teaching students,
not for reseach purposes)
But Marco remember: The 10.000 $ payment (1 Euro nearly 1 Dollar) you payed
was only a advance payment. Soon you have to pay for the same licenses
again 13.000 $.
Finally the price of this so named "bargain" is nearly 23.000 $

That's a price there I dream from.

Here I write down a actual offer of Creaso (the one and only
IDL-distributor for Germany).
And then say again it's a fair price....

10 licenses for 35.000,-- $ (this includes a university-rabate of up to
60%)
10 licenses without rabate : 78.860,-- $

There's also no rabate if I buy more licenses, so you can multiplicate the
price with 5 so you'll get the price I have to pay for 50
university-licenses (175.000,-- $ !!!!!!!)

If I get once such a price I would be very happy.

The licenses I wrote about too.

Greetings
