This is a good point. Occasionally someone will ask me why we don't sell each individual project on the DRK separately because they don't want to buy everything on the CD. The answer is that the DRK is priced with the assumption that you will use one or two things on it, not everything. In other words, if there are 20 distinct projects on the DRK, would can't sell each project individually for $5 each ($100/20). When making the build/buy decision, if the one or two projects you are interested in aren't worth the $99 (considering they are completely built, QAed and documented), then it's not worth buying the DRK. My point is that one shouldn't be looking at the value of every single project on the DRK (especially since most people probably don't even use all the products that the DRK contains content for), but rather what is the value of the portion of the DRK that is of interest to you.

Re: DRK releases
Just to clarify, if you subscribe to DevNet Pro or DevNet Essentials you get access to the DRKs 3 months before they are available for individual sale to non-subscribers. However, there will be some new info on this very soon (hint, I am doing a section during the FlashForward keynote tomorrow morning). More info when it is available... mike chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "Dave Watts" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2003 11:54 AM Subject: RE: DRK releases > > So what does MM mean when it says "available to > > non-subscribers" ? > > If you subscribe to Devnet, you'll get all of the DRKs before they're > available for general sale.

RE: DRK releases
I believe it means you can only buy DRK3 if you buy a subscription to DRK. If you just want to buy DRK3 individually then for some unknown (read marketing-related) reason they make you wait 3 months.

I would suggest that this means that you can get them for a more reasonable 99 bucks. -Original Message- From: Thomas Chiverton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 09 July 2003 16:40 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: DRK releases On Wednesday 09 Jul 2003 16:35 pm, Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) wrote: > nope, they are certainly not free.
