upgrade to MAX
10 messages in this thread
I was told at siggraph I need to have ver.4 to upgrade to MAX.
I only have ver. 3 and not much money; will there be a cheaper way to upgrade
from 3 and how much is the upgrade to to MAX anyways?

The post I saw said the R4 -> MAX upgrade is $495. The R3 -> MAX is $995. You
can upgrade R3 -> R4 now for $295, then go R4 -> MAX for $495 and end up saving
$200.
Tim,

I think a local dealer here quoted $199 for an R3 to R4 upgrade. If that's the
case that would be another $100. I was thinking the same thing as you. I
thought it odd that Autodesk had that pricing structure, where a two step
upgrade would be cheaper than one.

Can you give the name and number of that dealer because all the ads I've seen
list a $300 upgrade to ver.4.

Will,
I tried to look them up in the book, and see they are no longer listed. I can't
say that I'm surprised. I talked to them first, when shopping for my system. I
can't say I came away with the feeling that they knew what they were doing.
I didn't say that to imply that I knew a good place to get cheap upgrades. I
was just curious why Autodesk would ask $995 for something that could be had
for less, with a two step approach.

I thought the $495 upgrade to MAX was a SIGGRAPH special.

The $495.00 upgrade is good until first customer ship of MAX after that it is
$995
Hi,
Any idea how much student upgrade pricing will be once it starts
shipping?

Autodesk has not set education pricing yet. We will keep everyone informed.
