Thinking of buying Ventu
Message #6297
Just thought anyone who was thinking of getting Ventura Publisher would be interested in an flyer I got from Xerox. If you purchase Ventura Publisher 2.0 (I've seen it discounted for $479) between now and March 31st and send in your sales receipt and registration card to Xerox, they will…
