Hi Lee

The cost of the OAA varies:

1. Although rare you do occasionally come across a used model with the latest OS and OAA included.

2. When updating to the latest OS you can get a better deal if you buy it complete with the OAA. (All singing all dancing styles are not my cup of tea, so I didn’t bother with the OAA)

3. Shop around if just adding the OAA and ignore the prices on the web, as you can get better deals by playing one dealer against another. (Include international dealers as it’s only the activation code you need with OAS 7 (Earlier versions cannot have the OAA installed)

Hope this helps

Bill
