I just checked the link

http://legacyfamilytree.com/Etiquette.asp

and did not see where it says you can't ask about how Legacy compares to
another product.

It did say "Stay on the topic of Legacy and its add-on programs, which
is the sole purpose of the LUG User Group.".  As long as one is
comparing Legacy to another product and not just "selling" a competing
product it sounds like is NOT against the etiquette guidelines.

Besides knowing where the strengths and weaknesses of the product you
use (Legacy) can be very helpful.
