Steve:Did you even bother to read the review before you dumped your stock?

"At press time, MGI Software was working on a major upgrade."

"Although we were not able to get it in time for testing, the next version of PhotoSuite will address many of the problems in this version. The new version should include a revamped interface with new
step-by-step activity guides, including a PhotoFix activity for cleaning up your images fast. The program will also include additional photo projects and special-effects filters, among other new features; these should make PhotoSuite competitive once again.--SWG & DG"

If you are not familiar with the software industry you may want to know that rarely do competitive companies offer software upgrades in lock step with each other. Furthermore, new versions of software are often on the shelf by time the magazine reviews hit the newstands.

MGI is still a leading software developer, and there is nothing about the current review that suggests they have lost leadership. The review came at a poor time during a transition to an upgrade. However, Photosuite is NOT the only product offered by MGI software and you have apparently forgotten their other awards.Has Intel dumped their shares with you? I don't think so.

Judge it as you wish.
