Exorbitant cost of Sunwrite/Draw/Paint maintenance

[Ken Mandelberg]

The April 1 Sun pricelist lists the cost of software support on the
SunWrite/Draw/Paint package at $100/month. The list price of the software
is $995 (and is a good deal less on various promotions).  $100/month to
support a $995 package seems exorbitant to me.

As a comparision the only two other pieces of unbundled software on the
list with a price as high as $100/month are two SunLink packages that list
at $6000.

The language packages are all $50/month, and all cost more than
Write/Paint/Draw.
