[PEDA] Moving from 99SE to DXP: Upgrade or downgrade?

[Hamid A. Wasti]

I am current using 99SE and have been sitting on the DXP "upgrade" for a 
few months.  Being a Protel user for almost 10 years, I know better than 
to use any Protel product right after its release.  But being 1 year and 
2 service packs into it, is DXP mostly stable and at least marginally 
useable now, or is further delay advised?  Seeing a large number of 
people on this forum still using 99SE is not encouraging.

A few specific questions:

0) Is DXP stable now or are crashes hourly occurrences like with most of 
Protel's initial releases?

1) For schematic entry, are there any new features that make the move 
worthwhile?

2) For manual routing, are they any new features that make the move 
worthwhile?

3) How bad is the learning curve?

Thanks for your time and input.

Regards,

Hamid Wasti
