Re: Cost of RDP

Let's say just for a giggle that RDP saves you an hour a week (and I guarantee it saves me a lot more than that) over WDSC. That's 50 hours a year, give or take. So a quick divide tells me you consider your time to be worth about four bucks an hour. Yeah, I know that might be a bit over-simplified, but hopefully you get my drift. $800 just ain't that much as a one-time cost. It's the same reason carpenters and mechanics spend way more for their tools than weekend do-it-yourselfers.

A number of folk appear to be “stuck” on WDSc v7, or forced back on to
WDSc when their 60-day trial of RDP ends. Purely out of personal
curiosity, what would the price of RDP have to be to encourage you to
purchase it yourself?
I'd say $200/year would be about my limit, with $200 purchase price with
the first year's upgrades/patches included.
