I wish you luck. For us it took considerable effort to find someone to
give our money to.

Unfortunately, I had heard a lot about discounts or trading in a seat of
ADTS for a lower price, but we didn't find any of that. We did (get
suckered imo) into paying $50 for the media in addition to the license
cost.

Overall a horrible experience (though this is all second-hand, because
I'm not a buyer). What I can't believe is that when we ordered v6.1
that this wasn't all covered then. I think IBM kicks themselves in the
butt when they leave it up to the end-user to attempt to explain the
ADTS to RDi/p license switch to management. I'm not a salesman. Sure,
I put together a justification request for the software, but if there is
licensing swaps (trade in a seat of ADTS for example), IBM should be on
the ball with that one.

Although to our fault, I don't think we had an IBM business partner.
I'm told that we now do.

-Kurt

I don't know about all the campaigns and deals available, but I can tell
you the the packaging for RD Power v8 does include the visual designers.
That separation was for WDSc Advanced Edition and does not apply to the
Rational Developer series.

I'm about to give my manager a quote on RDP V8. I'm currently using WDSC
7. Does the $860 price include the Visual Designers: Screen Designer &
Report Designer? I remember seeing that in the WDSC version they were
priced separate. Also if anyone has any tips of getting a better deal I
would greatly appreciate it.
