Microsoft Publisher

I've found this at Amazon for £93.00 (microsoft publisher 2003), anyone know where I could get cheaper - or, is there another publisher just as good but a cheaper alternative altogether? :D

    Or Corel Draw - if you're willing to spend a bit of time learning it is much better. Costs £315 normally at Dabs, but Savapoint have got version 8 for free (+2.99 postage) in their loyalty gifts section.

    I would be happy to give you advice on how to use it.

    Edit: just to add, it is not a full version, but a slightly stripped down version, called Essentials (the full version, which I am used to, is aimed at professionals; this is aimed at home users). I cannot find much information on what specific features have been removed, but the internet reviews I found for it were all positive.

    Also, as it is adapted for home users you probably wouldn't need to spend much time learning like I originally suggested.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Here's a free one: Serif PagePlus SE.
  • I have a genuine unliscensed one which hasnt been touched nor registered and its the latest one
    It was purchased along with office 03, but didnt realise office pro already came with it!
    Hung on to it cause my dad said he might want it, just rung him he doesnt!, so if you would like it pm me, I will let it go for almost half that £93
  • Thanks for the offer monsterpc, hoping to be given a copy from a friend, all being well ;)

    I hate free serif products, you never get much, I reckon they just want to get you personal info... not a fan.

    I might go and buy that essentials item, just to see what's like - thank you for the link!
