Well Geeeeee. Egghead charges sales tax too, you bozo...so in NYC if you buy it at $449 as you stated, you end up adding about 9% to=
 the price (if I correctly recall their State/County/City tax rates)...bringing the price to $489.00....At PC Warehouse it's $459 pl=
us shipping, and they won't bargain in pricing with you.

And if you're stupid enough to move to the initial release of Windows 95, then I wouldn't want to sell anything to you anyhow.

Do you think people who would want Corel Draw don't know how much it costs?

When something is posted at $450.00, it DOESN'T necessarily mean than it will sell for that much...regardless, if you do something l=
ike this in the future, why do do it by email to the poster (whoever it may be) if you are so COMPELLED to raise this as an issue...=
then I won't have to go to the trouble of embarrasing you on the net.
