Subject: Very Affordable... actually.

On the subject of the economies of the package this does work out to approx 17c per typeface per seat (With a 10 seat licence) if you've got less seats in your business... why not just form a cooperative with another company/ies to get the required limit on the licence? That's what we plan to do. Always look for the positive in a situation. 'nuff said.

Subject: 10 or 20 seat?

What about 5 seat, 3 seat, 6 seat, etc?
