The Mayans are coming, and bringing cheap IDE's!

A while I ago a raved about Intellij IDEA IDE, but complained about the somewhat over the top pricing of a personal licence. My feeling was that this was such a good IDE many hobbyists would be happy to pay say £50 for it, but the asking price of £175 was going to loose them a lot of sales.

Well thanks to the imminent Mayan apocalypse, it looks like they have seen the light and knocked 75% off the asking price until the world ends tomorrow!

Unsurprisingly to everyone it seems except IntelliJ, their website has been struggling to cope with demand ever since they announced the offer. My advice: get it while you can before the Mayans have the last laugh!
