It's about time Xara got the recognition they deserve.

that's no competition for Xara!

in the ring we find:

An outdated bitmap editor that's way to expensive
An office suite you don't even own but that costs you dearly
A piece of software that mimics a feature that should have been built in the OS
A solution for a problem that even doesn't exist (and where there are cheaper and better solutions. VNC anyone?)
and, finally, a program that gives you power at your mouse tip, or pen tip, and that can turn your venerable PC in a palette for the budding artist

That's terrific! Thanks for the heads up, Rich.

I like your website too. Terrific uncluttered easy to navigate site!

Even if it could be considered as bias, I like what you say!
