Sure John... you MVPs get MSDN for nothing, so it is excellent "value".
CraigB in particular takes every opportunity to tout the 'value' of MSDN over a combination of products. His calculation is likely right on when it comes to a brand new setup with a developer who has yet to use (read: have bought) MS software previously. But for the guy who already bought Office2000 and WinXP and VFP7 and VS 6.0 I think that the "value proposition" is quite a bit different.
Not to mention that MSDN is an ANNUAL subscription whereas outright purchases are a multi-year proposition.
Those of us who have to watch our pennies some have a whole different "value proposition" than either those who don't or those who get it for nothing anyway.
