It keeps on getting a helluva lot better with each new version so Im putting a $300 bet on anyone that thinks that its going to be any worse than its predicessors. But, the only reason I rate it a four is because of its steep price, i mean come on! 300 dollars for a little piece of plastic. but i guess thats the future. so until next time kiddies, this is Dan S. with your Software Review! peace! ...
