However the follow on posts all think that the price is more likely to £149.99 (3 x £49.9933...) or over 3 times the price of the pre-order pack and 2p dearer than pre-ordering 3 individual copies. In effect 3 for the price of 3 and a little bit.
Your own idea of a 3 pack of Pro for £199.99 is basically the same maths function 3 for 2 at the offer price. However it's MS and hence you'll be paying £299.99 for a 3 pack and it's still 2p dearer than 3 individual copies. |

But that's part of the fun - seeing who guessed closest, if this ever sees the light of day  |
