Welcome to the "Mac World". There is no "cheap software". Slightly discounted retail is the best that you can hope for.
Well, it isn't quite that bad. Thanks to GNU/Linux developers, there are many professional quality, free substitutes for the software you listed. The attractiveness of such open-source software to professionals is the ability to modify it to their desires and recompile the source code. Check the Wikipedia for such software, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Macintosh_software and a reliable archive for the code itself, http://www.versiontracker.com/macosx/ Remember, it's illegal to sell it; and check the copy-left contract for proper use.
found all the software in need on ebay america, my brother lives there and can send it fed ex to me , the prices are quoted in pounds buy delivery is 3-4 weeks where as to usa mainland is 2 days can i use it and upgrade to latest versions later or will i be in a grey area
If you are a student, you can usually find sites giving discounts. I just bought MS Office 2007 for windows for only about $60.
