Apple, Final Cut, & Malcolm Gladwell

Well, I think I have managed to get the 10 licenses for Final Cut Express needed for the training session I am organising for the 20th of March, along with a couple of licenses for Comic Life deluxe to use for story boarding. I was amazed that Apple still charge very near the full price for all software for under  students university age unless you have an account and spend £50,000 per year, sounds crazy, though I did get an education discount
On the advice of Rhona (RiO, Excess Energy Communications) I ordered and am a good way through Outliners' by Malcolm Gladwell', not sure what I think yet, haven't found out anything that new yet but perhaps will through reading it.
