Doesn't seem like the best strategy for world assimilation.......

Probably not but then MS doesn't control the pricing in other countries
where their programs are sold by distributors and subject to different
taxation (VAT, import duties, etc.)

FYI,
Vat, Import, Duties etc. are not the cause of factors that determines
prices of Microsoftes software in europe or overseas.
Microsoft in many years has produced their software for europe
distribution in Irland.
Microsoftes software prices differs largely from country
to country. The price for a software in individual country is determined
in relation to the average national brutto income per inhabitant.
That´s why african, indian and other poor countrys gets it
for almost nothing - measured with a western ruler.
Of course, retail dealing have an influence on pricing.
The really cause of sinking prices to 50% in us. for the time being
is a huge lack of sales of Expression Web 2. The sales has gone to
Adobes DreamWeaver. Microsoft has to do something about it.
What is nearest to do ?, sinking the prices and crown some more
MVPs to speed up Web-forums. Their sales revenue is highly
dependent on microsoft.forums.

It could be there is a new version due out in a few months.

Do Microsoft still have the policy that if you buy some of there software
and a new version comes out within two months you qualify for a free upgrade?

Is this based upon any empirical data or just "senn says"?
