Re: Ordering RDp 8.5

You probably want D0C5FLL for $913 retail. Our business partner just
quoted us the price for the trade up license from ADTS (PDM, SEU, etc.)
for substantial discount. I don't recall the exact price or what product
code was used. The discounted trade up price is only available if they
can get it ordered for you via Passport Advantage. I've downloaded the
trial and am awaiting the processing of the order so that I can apply the
license.

We're also still on V5R4 for now. I've been using WDSc without too many
issues. But there are some odd behaviors that I would open a PMR on if it
were still under support. So far I've been very pleased with most of the
differences between WDSc and RDp. RDp is substantially faster. It also
includes the screen designer and report designer built-in.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Ordering RDp 8.5

We're actually on 5.4...I think the trade in for that expired a long
time ago...

Only looking at RDp because we've got developers getting Win7 systems..

I don't know if it is still available, but at the time we purchased RD
Power, there was a "trade up" option from ADTS (SEU/PDM) at a

Trade up does means that you give up a license for ADTS, but depending
on the size of your machine, as part of the upgrade to 6.1 you may

have

received more licenses than you actually use. For us, we had about

twice

the number of licenses as developers, so we could get the low price

for

everyone and still have enough ADTS licenses left so developers can
still use PDM/SEU.

Have a nice day.
