if you want to contact them, http://www.learnpath.com
interested in your reaction
I did complete their web form a fortnight ago and have as yet had no reply. I hope this is not indicative of the support scenario.
As far as I am aware Learning Pathways do not have a monopoly on the distribution of Star Office. Talking to Sun in the USA they knew nothing about them and were rather surprised by the �100 per school charge which I guess is for the support. I am currently trying to contact the relevant part of Sun UK to clarify the position because IRL Computer Systems Ltd are a Sun Star Office Now partner.
Hmm, I must admit that I was surprised when talking to the Learning Pathways stand at BETT. The bloke there definately gave me the impression that he had some kind of exclusive deal going on. He said it was no longer free (free beer), and that schools would be paying for it - and getting it from Learning Pathways because of the deal they had with SUN. I didn't press him on it. -- Matt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Sports - Coverage of the 2002 Olympic Games http://sports.yahoo.com
