I think it's a good deal - if you want that stuff.  I've got Colin's book and 
the mergExt set, I don't happen to want a mobile phone sleeve, SQL Yoga or 
Animation Engine, and so on, and while I might want a boxed copy signed by the 
team, I can't justify spending my company's money on it.

Whereas the £310 deal is a straightforward no-brainer for the commercial 
license alone, never mind the other stuff, so I can.  So (as well as 
increasing my personal pledge) I have just pledged this on behalf of my 
company - and if just one other person does so, we'll pass £100K!

So if you're using LC commercially, and haven't done this yet - please take a 
look.  If the project funds, this is a slight discount on the commercial 
license, extending whenever your current one expires (and you'll get the 
t-shirt, playing cards, phone cover etc etc etc).  If it doesn't fund, you've 
lost nothing.

Do it now and take the total into six figures!
