Hello: Can anyone tell me how many revisions / builds of V24 there have been? Which version is the most trouble free or stable? The price is way down from a year ago and I am considering it. I have been using V23 pro for about 3 years. Sure seems "about time" for 25 to be out???? Thoughts?
I think there was 2 or 3 updates for the V24 Software.
