Renewal prices are much lower; I can't believe the amount Microsoft wants to charge for the initial purchase though.

I don't know of many small shop software developers that would be willing or able to pay the $13K list price Microsoft wants for Visual Studio Ultimate.

What's really sad about that is that they bundled improved debugging with a whole bunch of other things that aren't useful to smaller businesses.
