- I just talked to them, and they are making more of a push in the
- universities. I did not ask specifically about pricing, but university
- bookstore prices vary widely, depending upon the markup the bookstore
- puts on things. Prograph sells here for about $160, I think.

- I believe if you call Prograph and fax a student id or something they
- will sell you direct at 50% off, which is what most software companies
- do. You can't really expect them to undercut their dealers.
