I have just begun work with Authorware Pro and am in love with it. Besides
the ease and speed of development, it does more things more easily than
I would have expected. I am using it through work and thought I might
buy a copy for myself -- until I saw the pricetag. I know our project
got a copy for only $4000 and have unlimited run-time licensing, but I
am not sure how this deal was settled upon. I would suggest talking to
the folks at Macromind and seeing what they can do for you.

Also, Authorware Pro v. 2.0 is due out in Feb. or March and from what I
have heard, will make Authorware even more impressive.
