Re: Turbo pricing available


Right now I could upgrade my D7 Pro to the latest full BDS 2006 for $460.

Less than a month from now I could purchase Turbo Delphi Pro for (guessing) roughly the same price.

Why not offer Turbo Delphi Pro as an upgrade for roughly $250, and give me the option, at a later time to upgrade to BDS for the difference of $460 plus say, 10%? This kind of pricing would look more attractive next year/version too.
