Rating: Summary: Outstanding Graphics Software Review: Upgraded from version 8. New features, some of which first appeared on versions later than 8 are very useful and easy to use. My primary tool is Draw which I use for my work but I enjoy playing with PhotoPaint as well.I have an older computer with a Pentium II 266 mhz chip so it's not quite up to handling version 11 but I was forewarned so I expected an occasional crash. When I upgrade my computer that issue will be resolved. I am constantly amazed at the scope and capability of this program. I doubt that there is anything graphically that can't be done with it.

Rating: Summary: great price upgrade from corel8 Review: Wow! What a great price [$$$] after rebate. I was relieved to learn upgrade from corel 8 was ok. In fact I didn't even have the serial# because it was long lost. I called customer support. After giving me the serial# to load the Corel suite 11 asked me to fax or email a picture of my Corel Draw 8 disk. Although the box seems to say version8 or higher, I got the impression proof of any Corel draw version was OK to upgrade from. I was satisfied with Corel 8 but It was giving me problems after upgrading from pIII450 win98 to new P4 3gig winxp pro. My print options were all Greek and program crashed (Locked up) often. It seemed logical to just upgrade to version 11. I have had none of the old problems so far. I will enjoy some of the new features but really feel the money well spent just to have the same features solid and reliable. Corel is the best program available for the money. Especially for someone like me who has the wide range of graphic needs. That is to say the paint/photo graphic needs to the high tolerance Corel draw cadd options. I really use the ability to work in full scale and print tiled pages on banner paper. Although I rarely print longer than six feet before concern the printer paper will go out of alignment. If you don't have a previous version of Corel draw to upgrade from you may want to buy corel8 for [$$$].
