Still enjoying it, thanks for your concern.

By the way ShawnDriscoll, the word you were looking for was backpedals.

I do not seek a way out, easy or otherwise.  I stand by my posts.  Eovia no longer exists.  Providing boxes and manuals is a high cost strategy in an age where electronic delivery of software is accelerating, and the marginal unit cost of delivery approaches zero.  This choice is up to the manufacturer.  I personally do not want to pay for a manual which will sit on a shelf (when a searchable PDF is available), nor do I want precious financial resources spent on such production, printing, handling and mailing.

Carrara 7 is a serious upgrade, addressing many issues and incorporating significant new functionality.  DAZ continues to devote resources to develop this product for which I am grateful, manual or not.
