Yes, that is the idea. Continue to renew SA, and you'll get
everything in the Studio line of products as a result.
Here's a model I would like you to consider:
Drop the term Software Assurance. Adopt the term subscription.
Purchase D2007 for Win32. Purchase automatically includes 12 months
updates. Essentially you are purchasing a subscription whether you
want to or not with the initial purchase.
My thoughts exactly.
And looking how things are changing, it may well be that that Codegear
is moving in that direction. Subscriptions are more targeted at the
smaller guys who hate to pay up front twice to buy a product.
The current Software Assurance, with the included support incidents,is
more targeted at large companies, which is not strange considering that
it came up at a time when Borland was moving their focus towards large
companies, ALM software and million dollar+ deals.
