A discount would definitely help. As it is right now I would end up
picking a primary platform to have the SDK on. Part of the pricing
I always hated from Borland was there was no way to buy a bundle
of their language/tools. I know the effort goes with each one to
match the price but if I'm buying Delphi Professional I sure would
have liked a break in pricing to buy C++ Builder Pro and JBuilder
Pro as well - each having their place.

I'm afraid it wouldn't help much in my case - each platform would be a
target, just for different types of applications.
Mac OS X
Linux
Windows
With some overlap between the OS X and the other two.
Thanks, Rod.
