  1. Re: What does this mean for owners of designer prox (not+)?

    My $.02: Much as many of us fight subscriptions, I would guess that Xara's previous business model was not sustainable. Just a guess. I am still on version 17. I remember several years back,...

    Re: Yin & yang with a twist

    Thanks, interesting thought. When I had cataract surgery, they put a "near" lens in my left eye and "distance" in the right one. Wonder if that influences it. I will take your stereogram 101 course.

    Re: Yin & yang with a twist

    I am amazed that I can never see anything in any of these. My wife is right, I have eyes that don't see. ;)

    Re: Been a while!

    72? It is all relative, you are a child.
    Spent some time at a VA clinic (USA) a while back. Guy stands up and brags that he is 92 (did not look it). Another guy told him to sit down, he was 96. A...

  9. Re: A new subscription option combining Designer Pro and Xara Cloud

    Sorry for being in the slow group. I upgraded to XDPX last August. So what are my $$ if I decide to go with the cloud + thingie. I don't understand these:

  10. Sticky: Re: The Xara Desktop Applications with and without the Update Service

    As long as the virtual machine is backed up, external to your computer, you just copy it back in. A VM is just a bunch of files in a folder. You would have to reinstall the host program.

  11. Sticky: Re: The Xara Desktop Applications with and without the Update Service

    Thanks much, great job.
    I run programs like Xara in a virtual machine. To back it up is to just copy the VM's folder. I keep a couple of the latest versions on a NAS. I do some program development,...

    If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.
  13. Re: No my question was not complete. thread was closed before my final comments

    I recall a developer tool company that went to subscription model with the same fall back consequence. When users rebelled, they took that away, and when you opt out, you stay at the current level, I...

    Re: Help with probably my last rodeo

    Had cataract surgery about 3 years ago. Minimal discomfort, worst part was putting in eye drops for a few days after. Left eye corrective lens for reading, right one for distance. Rarely wear any...
  15. Re: Any compelling reason to keep renewing Pro X annual licence??

    I run Xara in a virtual machine. I keep it backed up to a NAS. System gets corrupted or drive fails, copy it back. I keep all my work on the host and the NAS. No worries.

    Thank you. That "sort of" answers my question. Kinda looks like the upgrade subscription is what we used to call an upgrade when a new version came out. Now it is annual instead. Appreciate your...
