I'm not sure the distinction between an ad and a "consult" is as clear as it used to be. Pri-Med is very good at marketing, disguised as "education" and consultation -- and to be fair, it is both. But the game I play with myself and colleagues when I go to a Pri-Med lecture is "which drug company sponsored this particular talk".

new owner so could a full subscription price no ad version be available along with a less expensive/free ad infested version be in consideration?
I don't think Pri-med bought AC for it's current inherent cash flow.
Everyone tells me the "future" is the "Cloud". AC has a cloud version, I believe, but being old fashioned, I still want the server under my own roof.

However, it seems quite likely that future development of AC will be in the Cloud version (by Pri-Med) and the locally hosted version will continue for a while, but allowed to slide into irrelevance and decrepitude.

In fact, I'm beginning to wonder if AC-7.0x will only be a Pri-Med/Cloud version (with very clever ads that are very cleverly disguised) and AC 6.xx will be the last one we can have in our own offices.
