Hello,
I'm about to buy a new computer (MacBook Pro) and could have FMP 10 installed at the educational price of about $200. (I understand that one also receives the disk as part of the deal.)
However, I already have FMP 5.5.
If you were me, would you bother upgrading?
If version 5.5 won't perform well, or at all, on a machine running at 2.66 gigahertz, please let me know.
Last question ... Given the choice between a 15 inch screen and a 17 inch one, would you pay the extra money so that you can display extra data?
I'm far from a power user, but want to catalog trivia questions and aspects of local history in my looming retirement years.
By the way, is it possible for people who don't have Filemaker to read my file(s)... Is there such a thing as a free FileMaker reader.
Many thanks for your input.... the opinion type of input! I suppose I''ve just made a little FileMaker joke.
