This is not a complaint just a heads up

I had Vue 8.4 Complete

I just upgraded to the V9 Complete plus Annual Maintenence subscription deal for $99.50 USD and I like V9 Complete even more.

You can see that deal buy hitting the BUY button on that product at e-on

Gotta read the fine print on the Maintenence subscription deal.

On first read I thought I that for my $99.50 I was getting a V9 complete upgrade plus 12 months of Maintenence. I mean it says "plus Annual Maintenence subscription" So I thought Wow what a deal a year of full maitenace plus an upgrade to 9 now. I THOUGHT WRONG!

After I bought it. Then I read more details that I could find earlier and found out that all I was getting was the V9 upgrade plus right to start paying  $11.95 a month starting next month to remain on the plan.

So for now for $143.40 a year I'll always have the latest VUE Complete. That still saves me $56.60 a year in the long run so I'm not complaining

so the benefit from maintenance subscription (56,- in ddaydreams' case) plus the benefit from c.club membership (20+24,- in sapa's case) together make up for the complete annual c.club membership fee (100,-). That's the real deal in the end, I presume.

In other words: go cornucopia.com first, get a full year membership, then go e-onsoftware.com, get your upgrade plus subscripion. When you upgrade to Vue 10 next year, you've got your c.club membership for free compared to just ugrading to vue 9 complete without subscription and c.club membership.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.

visit www.aRtBeeWeb.nl (works) or Missing Manuals (tutorials & reviews) - both need an update though
