Software for LessGet Last Years Version
Once a new program comes out, the older versions all but disappear from the store shelves. Manufacturers generally unload all of their old programs by sending them off to mail-order houses for resale. Contact Mail-Order Houses
CAUTION: Sometimes the old version of a program was originally priced much higher than the new version. This means that even at surplus prices the old program can cost less than the newest version. Before buying check and see what the new version is going for. You can request catalogs from these mail-order houses or check them out online: Surplus Software 800-753-7877
