Probably not but then MS doesn't control the pricing in other countries where their programs are sold by distributors and subject to different taxation (VAT, import duties, etc.)

FYI, Vat, Import, Duties etc. are not the cause of factors that determines prices of Microsoftes software in europe or overseas. Microsoft in many years has produced their software for europe distribution in Irland. Microsoftes software prices differs largely from country to country. The price for a software in individual country is determined in relation to the average national brutto income per inhabitant. That s why african, indian and other poor countrys gets it for almost nothing - measured with a western ruler. Of course, retail dealing have an influence on pricing. The really cause of sinking prices to 50% in us. for the time being is a huge lack of sales of Expression Web 2. The sales has gone to Adobes DreamWeaver. Microsoft has to do something about it. What is nearest to do ?, sinking the prices and crown some more MVPs to speed up Web-forums. Their sales revenue is highly dependent on microsoft.forums. /senn

It could be there is a new version due out in a few months.
Do Microsoft still have the policy that if you buy some of there software and a new version comes out within two months you qualify for a free upgrade?

At MIX the Expression Team stated that new versions were on a 14-18 month release cycle (which is approximately the same release cycle as Dreamweaver). Since v2 was released in June of this year I doubt that there is another version due out in the near future.

Is this based upon any empirical data or just "senn says"?
What do you think? You have read his posts.... and other mvp's .... bearing in mind why mvp's are made mvp's and the general weirdness of 99% of his/her posts that should answer the question.
For the record ... the small amount of sales of my tips ebooks keep me in domains (price less than that of a domain from namecheap) ... are not generated through the forums or newsgroups as I don't post that often in them ....and I have as much RIGHT to put whatever I want in my sig lines as Senn or anyone else.
and come to think of it ... even if such a statement were in reality true (it's not btw) what the hell would that matter? Mvp's answer questions to help people they don't get paid.. and many go above and beyond....
can you hear me grinding my teeth?
