Many thanks.  Will make my decision after reading some input from persons 
that order the new version.  I also think I can make it awhile longer 
with my current "suite" of OS/2 applications (DeScribe, Mesa, DBexpert) 
plus the other, unnamed suite which business dictates I use.
How does the StarDraw look?  We need a good quality vector based 
application ImO.  Something at the Micrografx or <shudder> Corel level.
Have you ordered it yourself?  I am curious about its speed, etc.
