Hi Kim - Our department's purchasing person has gotten prices from Jackie Desander at the Computer Store. They aren't as good as they were in the past. In one email, we were quoted a price of $5.50 per client, but that was revised to $3.50 per client. Our licenses don't expire until June, though, so we might be a special case. I'd advise contacting Jackie to get the final word.

We're getting down to the wire... Does anyone know about the status of renewing the agreement with Symantec??
