I tend to have to agree. I am in software and tend to be fairly critical of programs. I refused to purchase Legacy 8 right away because I wanted to make sure all the bugs were shaken out. After reading this forum I was very happy I did not purchase it. There seemed to be a lot of problems.
But just last week I broke down and upgraded. I have been pleasantly surprised. Perhaps I don't do anything "fancy" but I have had no problems and really like the look and changes that have been made. Overall extremely happy with the way it works. Thanks!
