>Bonjour Bob,

>Three questions, one being a call for a fairer price system :
>
>- Could somebody ( Thomas for example ;-) ) send us a side-by-side
>comparison of Amapi 7 / Amapi 7 pro / Hexagon features ? It is not
>always easy to compare them. For example, Amapi 7 does export to Illustrator
while Hexagon does
>not. These kind of small differences can make the decision in some
>specific needs.
>
>- Is the 99 ? "companion upgrade" offer a companion offer, or an upgrade ?
>If it is a companion offer, then people upgrading from Amapi 7 keep
>their Amapi license valid, with possibility to upgrade Amapi to Amapi
>Pro, for example.
>If it is an upgrade in the true meaning, then people upgrading from
>Amapi loose their ability to use Amapi and to upgrade to Amapi Pro.
>So, companion-offer or up-grade ?

>- European customers will pay 118 ? VAT included. Knowing that the
>Dollar is 0,77604 of an Euro today, that means that your European
>customers will pay 152 dollars what your American customers will pay
>99. Is that ... fair ? This kind of behaviour is well known of Adobe.
>It makes us badly feel like fleeced sheep.
>I understand that you may have been badly advised by an financial
>councelor that is not up-to-date with the change rate between Dollar
>and Euros so I am not blaming you, but hope you correct that mistake as soon
as possible.
