[QUOTE="TheAuldGrump, post: 2959695, member: 6957"] The Fool 1972 did a very nice [url=http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=115751]review[/url] of PP 10 here on E. N. World. In fact that is why I decided to upgrade to 10 from 8. I was hoping that he had made the jump to 11 so I could sound him out on the program. And I have to agree with him - PP 10 is very nice. Which is somehow making it harder for me to upgrade to 11... (If there is anybody I want to use the old Rolling Eyes emoticon on it is myself...) But at $30 I will swallow my misgivings and purchase what I suspect is an excellent program. :p (At least I [i]can[/i] give myself the raspberry...) As for the mini hub - it turns out that my roomy's computer only has one port, so it will find a home. :) [url=http://www.freeserifsoftware.com/]Free Serif Software[/url] has a somewhat crippled version of Page Plus as a free download. While slightly crippled it does not expire, but it does not create PDFs if I recall correctly (which I may not - I never used the free version.)
