I recently ordered the upgrade directly from Microsoft, and I think that's the
price I a paid (plus shipping). The only problem I have is that their database
can't distinguish between "J. Scott Houchin" and "James L. Houchin" so they
keep merging my records and my father's records together. Other than getting
who owns what straightened out AGAIN (I though I had gotten everything fixed
when I upgraded from Word 4.0 to Word 5.0), there really wasn't any hassle.
