Anyone have a connection to get a good price on AutoCAD 2014? Full version, not LT (lite).

I would give Cad Co or Cad 1 a call - why you'd pay so much money to inflict so much pain on yourself is beyond me!!

what field of work are you in?

http://www.associatedsoftwaresales.com/home.php Acad full versions for around $1000.
I checked them out as much as possible about a month ago - even called & talked to the guy. They only sell known de-activated copies of autodesk products. There's the whole Vernor vs Autodesk case which I asked him about... he assured me it's legit. I searched but never found anything negative about them. I do IT work for several Architect firms. I'll check and make sure they got everything installed.

I would give Cad Co or Cad 1 a call - Those places are well known and are pretty much full retail.
why you'd pay so much money to inflict so much pain on yourself is beyond me!! If you know what you are doing, no software is a "pain"... Actually, that's not true... Windows, sucks!!!!!!
what field of work are you in?My schooling is in architecture, but I have a shit-ton of experience in engineering, and about fifteen other different disciples. I've been using AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, Revit, SolidWorks, 3D Studio, Argos, and about forty other programs for over twenty-five years.

I'm simply looking for a better price...

EDIT: Ah, now that it's the next morning, perhaps that is a good idea. They don't have anything current, though...

BTW... I called CAD-1 and asked them what they thought about the whole thing. They said they are probably legit.

They said they are probably legit.I've been talking to Chris at CAD-1 over the last few days (he knows a lot of people on this board, small world). I ended up buying from Amazon. Chris couldn't get close to the price on Amazon. ...and I got a free Kindle Fire HD, one-year AutoDesk subscription, free shipping, and zero interest for twenty-four months.

Chris emailed AutoDesk while we were on the phone, telling them about the Amazon deal. AutoDesk responded pretty quickly with, "we'll be taking that down!" So I hung up and ordered that bitch!!!
