Whoa... I've heard stuff about European products being more expensive,
but your price quotes are outrageous! Is it some kinda tax thing or
something? Things are *WAY* cheaper here.

A weird side note: how come imported European software is so cheap here,
at least from a good importer?

I dunno, maybe it's because we're in a recession... how's Europe doing
economically?

Would you have to *SMUGGLE* stuff back from the States? What if you
mail-order it? Is there some kind of import tax?
