This is part of an email recieved from an isp in regards to the Generator
license fees.
"Macromedia's current price of the Generator license is $4300. However we
have
been told that this will be increased in April to around $15,000 per cpu.
No, that's not a typo, it's $15,000."
Sounds great......or greedy.
