Fortunately you'll need only a fraction of that - check out the Rev/DC 
price list:
<http://secure.runrev.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PLST&Store_Code=SDREBWLP>

Prices range from US$99 for DreamCard, to $299 for Revoluton Studio, and 
for the serious professional developer there's the Enterprise package 
for $899.

Mind if I ask where you got the impression that Rev was only available 
for $900?

I find that myth continues to be perpetuated often in the RB world; I'd 
like to think competing-product communities could gain followers through 
something more substantial than FUD.
