["Barry" <bbinc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to know how access companies come up with a price for service and 
training.  £400+ a day seems rather excessive.  I also wonder if 'a day' is 
actually 8 hours.  When I first bought a computer six years ago I paid £500 for 
two days set up and training with Jaws.  The guy turned up at around ten 
o'clock and left at around three o'clock.  That's £50 an hour... and I was 
obliged to give him lunch.  At the time, this was considerably cheaper than 
other companies too.
I understand that the training that these people undertake is expensive 
although this guy told me that he taught himself Jaws by reading the help files.
