I just received email from a Mindjet salesman informing me that there will be no academic price for the upgrade. If you're interested in stimulating academic use, changing this policy would be a really good place to start. I have owned Mindmanager Pro through several versions and was interested in the upgrade.

That's important to me, and I suspect to other education users of the program. Too bad -- it looked like a good upgrade.

We do so because we think our software can really help people in higher education and want to make it easier for students and teachers to get into the product. On top of that, we provide the reduced upgrade price for people who already own the software. (I should also note that the standard practice among all leading software companies is to not offer academic discounts on upgrades.) We sincerely appreciate your input, which has already become a part of the on-going review our pricing structure. Our continual goal is to make sure we meet or exceed industry standards in this regard. We think we currently exceed standards. But we are always open to input. Thanks. Hi Kevin,
