3 x £79.99 = £149.99?

Epic Maths Fail (the second time I've used that phrase on these forums in a week!).

Actually, I'd buy a three computer Windows 7 Home Premium pack for £149.99: £50 per computer? Sounds reasonable to me in the same way that pre-ordering for £49.99 sounds reasonable.

Now, how about a 3 pack of Pro for £199.99...?

Trust me, I'm a Master of science


4* from 4.89 average? Rounding fail!
