50% discount upgrade offer as CADSTAR 1.X for Windows becomes obsolete

Zuken is offering customers a 50% discount for users wanting to upgrade from CADSTAR 1.X for Windows to the equivalent CADSTAR 5.0 bundle with 1 year's maintenance. The offer ends on 30th November 2002, after which upgrades will not be available and users will need to purchase the full product at list price.

CADSTAR 5.0 will read data from earlier versions but will not write to the older versions. The most comprehensive CADSTAR package, CADSTAR 5.0 Gold Plus, normally costs £7000 so the upgrade offer gives a saving of £3500 when purchased with a one-year maintenance contract at £1050.
