Hello Claire and everyone Jo Falkink has a good comparison of the several software packages available here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~falkink/lace/SoftKlos-EN.html
Also look around Jo's software pages, there are other options besides using the hobby software. (e.g. Corel Draw) I use Easy Lace. The update to Vista is available at the Easy Lace website. They are good about technical support, too. Others on this list use Lace XRP (?) - someone will correct me on that ;) and perhaps will comment. I've used Easy Lace for a long time, and like it very much. I tried the predecessor to Lace X... which was Lace 2000, when it came out some years ago, and I still preferred Easy Lace. Recently I did try the demo of Knipling, and it is very good for someone who knows computer assisted drawing - (not me though, sadly.) My free advice is to try the demo programs of any that are available, and make a decision to purchase after that.
