Does anyone know of a good place to purchase Visual Studio? $1,600+GST on the offical NZ MS site is a bit steep considering you can buy for around $800USD.
I have come accross a MS program called MS WebsiteSpark. It seems to be a program for small businesses and allows you to download VS2010, SQL 2008 and windows server 2008 at no cost. The only conditions are to deploy a site within 6 months & pay $100 in 3 years when the program ends. I can't see any other catches.
OT: Visual Studio for kiwis
Hey Kiwis,
Does anyone know of a good place to purchase Visual Studio? $1,600+GST on the offical NZ MS site is a bit steep considering you can buy for around $800USD.
