XMLSpy must cost a ridiculously large amount, since not only does Altova
not bother to include the price in its announcement. It doesn't include it
on the web site, and won't even let you look at the price before putting it
in the shopping cart. And of course, the shopping cart doesn't work, so you
can't even see the price that way.
This is deceptive and dishonest. I don't object to people charging for
software, but I very much object to companies trying to hide their pricing
or charging different users different prices depending on what they think
they can get away with.
