- Anyone know what the upgrade price to the full version of final writer
- would be? Are the updates handled by Gordon Harwoods or by softwood themselves?
-
- I really dislike upgrading trough Gordon Harwoods, I once wanted to do a
- competitive upgrade from Prowrite, the US price was US$60 + 5 shipping.
- From GH it was UKP 60+10 shipping which means a ~70% price increase. Since
- this gives me a fealing I'm being robbed I did not order the upgrade. I've
- since had email contact with Woody about this and he sais they are working
- on a more affordable upgrade program outside the USA but first contact was
- 5 months and things are still not in place.
