Anyone interested on selling an old version of Xara Xtreme?

somewhere I have a copy of xtreme [2005], before I go looking for it is it one you might want?

sorry, according to wikipedia versions 3 to 5 are between 2007 - 2009, so no...
thanks anyway, andrea.

ok

acorn mentioned version 5; I feel sure there was a free edition, but it might have been limited in fuctionality; I might have a copy of that somewhere

Andrea, I have a near mint XX3.0 Pro:



The Licence Number is on the back of the box in my name.
Is this what you want or need?

I have XX4.0 & XX5.0 activation code emails separately with no physical copy.

I would like to understand why you need this before we discuss any sale.

my two boys have each an old (and offline) xp desktop computer they can use the way they want. on those machines those version of xara are fast as hell, inkscape doesn't run very well. boys showed serious interest in computer graphics, and i think that xara is the best choice for them, an excellent quality software. the demos are amazing.
i'm interested in everything you got (xx3 box, xx4 and 5 codes), so, if you want, give me a price. my mail is spinox@tiscali.it
thanks, andrea.

Andrea, thank you. I will pull things together. I may have Bouton's Official Guide somewhere as well.
I will email you details soon.

I feel sure there was a free edition

Xara XS claimed a release date of 2005 but really it was released in early 2006, based on the previous year’s Xara X¹. It surfaced when Xara Xtreme 2 was released, and given away with magazines as a free promotional thing that had an option to upgrade to the new Xtreme 2 program.



I bought multiple versions of Xara Xtreme Pro 3.2, and if I knew how to give them to you, I would - I'll never use them again, I have a Pro+ subscription now. Ditto all the versions before and after it - I bought everything Xara sold for years. The Magix website doesn't show any serial numbers but I have them in the original order confirmation emails.

hi daniel

this is what i was thinking of [did a google] :

https://www.xara.com/us/specialoffers/designer/

but it ended long ago - I probably have the file and the key offline somewhere, I'm a squirrel whenit comes to software

older cd's you could copy all the files to computer and install from folder, so in theory you could just transfer that digtally, but it would be big, need a large file transfer site

the download for that offer is archived on wayback machine, the file is named Xara_Xtreme_5_Silver.exe, its size is 225MB and require registration and serial number to work. i don't know if the goal of registration is only to have a mail where to send the serial.

the https://ufile.io/ site allows to upload 50GB of files without registration, storing them for 30 days.
