- From Programmer's Paradise catalog, Spring 96 issue:
- (The pricing is not 100% clear, but as far as I can tell,
- these two are the proper ones to compare):
- MSVC++ 4.0 Comp Upg. MSUVC88-IR $239.00
- MSVC++ 4.0 Comp Subscr Upg MSUVCS-IR $329.00
-
- So, it appears that the subscription costs $90.00.
