This is not directed to Michael but to all.
I read back in the this thread that a Solution Provider Shop can get reduced rates on this. I have tried to find that in our company agreements with Microsoft and am having a hard time. We do currently use tech web and have a library subscription for the help CD's. We do also have some MCP's and MCSE's (no MCSD's yet). I think we could be such a provider, and hence for my own desktop get the reduced rate. Is there a huge fee that is paid to be one of these shops? I do find mention of a fee I just dont find how much, anyone with a working knowledge of this, so I can make a business case? I just cant bring myself to personally pay that much (2K+).
Thank you and Happy Holidays
