Perhaps I am mistaken about the LabVIEW base price, I may be thinking of one of the other development packages, rather than the base package.<br><br>If you ever get the urge to take a look at it, I would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have :)<br>

</div>LOL! I don't know that E-Prime does any better, but I defer to your judgment.<br>

</div>Yikes! (Although I found a note from 2007 showing a "base price" of<br>
$1200.) By comparison, if you ask you can still get a full EP1<br>
license for $700. As for the current EP2 product, as detailed at the<br>
PST sales site, (<a href="http://www.pstnet.com/products/e-prime/#Pricing" target="_blank">http://www.pstnet.com/products/e-prime/#Pricing</a> ) a<br>
single "Professional" license runs $1000, what I call the "base"<br>
edition runs a mere $800 for one license, and you can get a<br>
"run-time" license (no E-Studio hardware key) for $125. Network<br>
licenses and quantity discounts are also available.<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
>Are you familiar with LabVIEW then?<br>
<br>
</div>As it turns out, I have been told by a user in our organization that<br>
we have a site license for LabVIEW, so I could explore it for no<br>
charge! Now if only I had the time to spare...<br>
