Engravelab came with a used laser that I just purchased for a backup laser because the price was to good to pass up. We currently use corel x3. My question is: how do both compare and should we just stick to corel and not try to learn the engravelab? Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.

Dave,
You might start here http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthre...gravelab+corel for some thoughts on this while you are waiting for replies.

I had a guardian angel at one time, but my little devil got him drunk, tattooed, and left him penniless at a strip club. I have not had another angel assigned to me yet.

I have both including version 7 of Engravlab expert as well as Corel X3.
I was forced to buy the Engravlab ($1600) for a Newing Hall engraver. I thought it would be easy to learn--it's just a drawing program, right?
Well, it's not easy to learn and for running a laser I can't imagine how you could do better than Corel. I've been using Corel for 9 years, I'm still learning but it's a great program.
