I have an MSDN subscription... it's something like $2799 a year, it used to be like $2299, but I find half the software very unuseful for a FIRST team. There are a lot of Development environments and server softwares, but not that many teams would use it. You get a package every month, and a big package comes every three months or so. The only thing I look forward to is when my dad brings home the annual "useful" software box, which includes the new versions of Windows, office, and such. You do get all the Betas about a year in advance, and the actual software a month before... but besides that its a hefty price for FIRST to pay
