Gee guys calm down.
But as software goes, I was glad I was forced to learn Corel Draw, and it is somewhat different yet the same as Photoshop, at least the older one I am using.
One quick example I recently purchased a used vinyl cutter the one in my Signature line, anyway the seller wanted $150 more for the old software (XP only) that came with it! Bull. I looked around and found some whiz bang software but alas the demo version or trial (thank God for those) was sadly lacking.
I did find one, not higher priced one and it was VinylMaster. It was so much like Corel I felt right at home and the printing or cutter interface was wonderful. Yes it is great and up to date software..... so why can't someone in the US or the Chinese come up with an a extra cost software that does not cost $2000 to purchase. I paid either $125 or $150 for the vinyl cutting/ design software. It also included drivers and interfaces for a long, long list of machines.
