Will phone order mine this morning. Will mention DIC membership as sponsored by Corel. Have been using PSP since v.5 or whatever it was in 2000. Main reason by phone is to ask a question if X3 is going to have a second version. When I purchased PSP X2 it wouldn't process D3 RAW and two weeks later PSP X2 Ultimate came out and I had to do a second upgrade to get D3 RAW access. According to Corel rep that was the only way I was going to get the access, At least the second upgrade cost was discounted as a fair and reasonable expense.

Update. PSP X3 has no planned immediate upgrade as did X2 to X2 Ultimate. Seems that the upgrade was some sort of fluke. I'm the first person to order the X3 so as a matter of making history, I can go in the kitchen and make myself a cup of coffee. At least I don't have to jump in that vat of whipped cream with Todd and Cathy.

Larry, I can double check for you. One of my best friends is like thrid in command at Corel. He works directly under the Senior Vice President. I had him over for a photo shoot last week.I will let you know asap. Alex.

Really? The THRID level? LOL

I just installed the X3! It is looking pretty cool!

Thanks, Alex. Sounds good, Todd. I don't get mine until the box arrives by land, sea, or air. My main work station is not connected to the Internet so getting the download version is not an option.

I upgraded mine too yesterday. Didn't get to install it yet but watched the video's online

Alex, I tried to get in touch with Corel all day today. I purchased the upgrade on download, then found out it would take three hours to download. Does anyone know if I can download this at work (hispeed) onto a USB to bring home and install on my desktop? Otherwise how do I change my order to a box set when I can't get thru on the phone or email? Thanks anyone.

Todd should be able to help you out here, Gay. As far as downloading to a flash drive, I am not sure that would work, although it sounds like a good idea!

Todd MacMillan

Gay, the download is around 345mb. You should be able to copy it to a Flash Drive if the flash drive is large enough.
