I had the opportunity t re-up for the 201 course and opted not to because of all the hints now this happens WhiCh is great but I dropped 8 of em on a defunct class and I am sort of angry I didn't know enough about the upgrade before hand to wait on the Logic EIGHT 101 class. I also dont feel like I am in an exclusive bunch anymore with the HUGE priCe drop. But Oh WeLL..

Christ man, it would give me an mental condition to type like that.
Why the hell should Apogee knock down the price on that stuff? That's pointless. Let's be realistic people. These companies are in business.
If they are so easy to make, then make you own converters. People have done it. Apogee is just people.
800 for an 8 week course seems like a deal to me. My company gives training sessions and they are about $650/day/person. On a different technology, but still.
If you can't apply what you learned in a Logic 7 class to Logic 8, then you didn't learn very well. It's an upgrade, not a totally different beast. Your sense of paranoia towards your teacher, or that he was scamming you is totally unfounded. Maybe he was writing a book on Logic 8 and was under an NDA. Do you think he'd give up his publishing deal, breach an NDA, stop training or get sued just do you could have the "inside scoop" or feel like you got more for your money? Forget it man.
If your livelyhood depended on Logic 8 vs Logic 7, then I'd say you weren't a very good engineer to begin with, and are likely needing to find another career. It's just a tool. There's no exclusivity. There is no club. Any such concepts are grand delusions.
Why should Apple not let you take a training class? It's business. It's money. It's investors. It only makes sense. Apple isn't going to announce and say, "EVERYONE STOP THE PRESSES. NO MORE TRAINING". The training course was $800. It's not much money. Stop whining. Don't act like you think that technology freezes when you buy it.
Get a grip, grow up and grow some, and learn to type like a decent human being. Please find a new career, because if I came into a studio and someone who talked like you type was the engineer, assistant or even intern I would walk out.
