I like the time before christmas. Usually the prices climb high.
Here is my favorite:
An excellent IDE + build tool + scm + test suite usually costs:
Eclipse + ANT + Subversion + Junit = 0 EUR
or
#Develop + NAnt + SVN + NUnit = 0 EUR
And —-tada—– here’s the christmas “edition”:
Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite = 13023 EUR
