Good points Mark but don't forget the context sensitive on-line multimedia help system. This is one of the most impressive features of Xara. Becoming productive with XaraX will be almost instant and getting answers to "how to's" will be just as fast if not faster.

No one else has a Multimedia Help system that can compare to XaraX. Just wait and see. Does any competing products even have a Multimedia help system? I have already experienced what this can do for newbies (and me too [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]) This is an awsome feature often overlooked. You gatta see it in action to believe it.

The BEST is good enough!
