And that is the list price. I do not think that a lot of people buy at list price. A few weeks ago, I saw CorelDraw on sale for $399 at a local shop, and that was their regular price (list was $795), and this was for version 1.2 . So I do not think that anybody will spend more than $450-500 for the new release.
