Subject:8 vs 9 Posted by: Merlin99 Date:5/11/2009 3:19:23 PM Not been here in a long while so appologies if this is an old question; Finally got the BBC to supply SF for my workstation with the argument that I have used it since 4.0 and am very familiar and fast with it. Sadly 9 was installed. Having long since removed it from my own studio in favour of 8 I am reminded how annoyed I was to purchase 9 and discover various changed/removed features and useability. Is there any news on this? A version 10 that restores what SF was good at? I cannot recomend SF to the BBC while it is in it's current state. Cheers

Subject:RE: 8 vs 9 Reply by: Steven Myers Date:5/13/2009 7:12:21 AM I was annoyed at the time, too. But the pain didn't last long. I got used to the changes, and now I don't even remember what they were.
