The British Computing Society have sent me a 'special offer' because I'm a member: Office 2003 Pro for £155 or Macromedia Studio MX (the MX version of Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Illustrator and Flash) for £199!
Worryingly, thats half price! (and about the same price as student discounted licenses for them)
A worrying article in the BCS magazine said that Windows once made up 5% of a computer's price, and now makes up 15%! How long ago was 'once'? 1996! Not that your OS is damned expensive or anything :blink:

I don't get any discounts from BPS.:angry: Then again I'm not sure I'm actually a member.

Plus they aren't a computing group, so they aren't likely to be offered discounts by companies!
But you probably aren't a member, you have to sign up. My degree is acredited by the BCS, but I didn't become a member until this year (I had to be to do Industrial Experience)
