Elliotte before you make those accusations you should really make sure you have evidence to back your claim. On the main page www.altova.com click on the shop tab click on your country of origin (i.e USA/Canada, Europe etc) click on the product you want re: xmlspy 2004 click on enterprise, professional or home edtion and voila, prices at @ your service

here is the link to the USA/Canada prices, have fun

Enterprise

XMLSpy must cost a ridiculously large amount, since not only does Altova not bother to include the price in its announcement. It doesn't include it on the web site, and won't even let you look at the price before putting it in the shopping cart. And of course, the shopping cart doesn't work, so you can't even see the price that way.

This is deceptive and dishonest. I don't object to people charging for software, but I very much object to companies trying to hide their pricing or charging different users different prices depending on what they think they can get away with. --
