I dont want to take over this thread so this is my final posting on FreeHand but I enjoyed using Freehand MX only and it was sad to see it go. In windows 8 it wont run! so as I stated Stagestruck has been developing but has run into funding problems. Over 3 years I have donated around £60 but it has stalled but have a look here: http://www.stagestack.com/pledge/

There are legal ways to download Freehand MX if you are interested.
