Buying an old copy of FrameMaker

[Peter Courlis]

Shelly Schneider is (potentially) looking for a copy of Frame Maker 8.2.
Which brings to mind an interesting question.
Does anyone know of the distribution of F M'er (versions) in use?
That is, some earlier versions of F M'er are still in use in a production environment
and too what extent are these earlier versions used (???)

Anyone have a "best guess" or some data ?

Subject: Buying an old copy of FrameMaker
 

An additional contractor has been brought on by my company. If I can find a low-price copy of FrameMaker, perhaps she won’t end up moving her docs to Word (shudder). I know folks on this list swear by FrameMaker 8. FrameMaker 9 was a bug-fest. I doubt I’ll find many people offering FrameMaker 10. I've had no luck on eBay . I’d love to find a copy of FrameMaker 8  with a transferable license (was it 8.2 everyone loved?). Does anybody have any thoughts or caveats on how to go about this?  Thanks!
