To all who asked for more information on NUD.IST, firstly thanks to Dr John
Etheredge in HK for his information. I can confirm the supplier as QSR
Qualitative Solutions and Research and the www address as
http://www.qsr.com.au/
The cost at the University of SA about a year ago was AUD465 for the
software and AUD 270 for each licensed user. In US dollares that is about
USD300 and USD180 respectively.
The product is mentioned in many of the more recent Research Methods texts
including those from Sage
As to a cheaper alternative, I have receied information and downl;oaded a
shareware product called SQUARENOTE, which comes for free or USD40 for a
registered verion, but I nve not used it and do not think that it has the
mapping capacity that NUD.IST has.
I will send this message to all those who have replied to me individually as
well as to the list. This will be done on Wednesday when I return from a day
away at Second Valley - it is mid-semester break here.
