Default got a laptop, need vagcom

i searched but couldn't find any threads on where i can pick it up, im throwing codes like a ************ and tired of driving across the city to the only guy that isn't booked to the nuts. google found it for $220US im assuming this is standard pricing?
also are there any links kickin' around explaining what the hell i can manipulate, change, fix, etc. on my car?

I bought an ebay cable for $30 and i use the V4 software with no key. it works good for codes. I may buy the key soon if I feel the need, but the ebay cables work.

If you need a laptop buy the cheapest one. It'll work fine with the VAG software.
