I'm agreeing with all your observation and am left wondering why this wasn't 
called v7.6 instead of v8.0. Maybe I'm a purist at heart but in the past 
software marketers seldom increased a full digit unless it was a radical 
redesign especially of the user interface. And I would doubt that the 
incompatible database format would warrant such an incremental increase because 
I believe that's been done in the past without a full digit increase.

But regardless of those minor things, version 8 is here and time to enjoy it as 
written.

Carl,

Whilst I agree with your praise for the Legacy program, and I am sure that 
Legacy will be delighted with your undoubted loyalty, you have not given me one 
reason why I would spend money to upgrade.

For me, I need to see technical improvements, and/or, additional functions 
which I need - not the same as mere additional functions!! As it is, V8.0 does 
give this, especially with Event Sharing, the return of the 5 sourcing options, 
the loss of which was lamented by many of us, the improved Family Search option 
(although I recognise the caveats with family trees) and I really do like the 
new design options, and much more.

Are there things which I would have liked which are not there? Sure but there 
is sufficient there to raise my interest.
