    Hello All

    The renewal on my specific website and email accounts I use for business
    were due for renewal soon, and, given the traffic and sales, plus the
    fact I have retired from work means I don't want to renew them for the
    sole purpose of selling RiscCAD.

    Why not sell via iStore and let Andrew deal with all the overheads?

    The PlingStore might be a more useful place to do it... But yes, PlingStore would make a lot of sense.

    I did look at this before, but at the time RiscCAD had a unique serial number to each copy, so it was not so straight forward. I might re-visit it.

    Thanks

    I use ProCad+ and that has a unique serial number and is already available
    via iStore. There must surely be others.

    Hello David,
    Enjoy your retirement.
    I still use RiscCAD, it is my favourite cad package.

    Hello All

    The renewal on my specific website and email accounts I use for
    business were due for renewal soon, and, given the traffic and sales,
    plus the fact I have retired from work means I don't want to renew
    them for the sole purpose of selling RiscCAD.

    That said, I have set up a RiscCAD Facebook group and anyone still
    wanting to purchase RiscCAD can find me on here, through Facebook or
    at [email protected]

    RiscCAD still retails for £30 for the CAD program and £5 for the
    additional Pattern Pack. Payment can be made via PayPal to the above
    email.

    Kind regards

    Looking at the "version" file for mine, it would appear the latest I have
    is release 8e from 19/11/04 ! so I am well behind

    Yes, version 10 is the latest, I do have a few minor fixes in my version (10.04 or 10.05 I think), but as no-one has reported the bugs, there is little point in upgrading if you have 10.03.

    8e is definitely behind the curve, you are now missing outline fonts, bezier curves, multiple views and snaps etc.....

    Obviously time to think about upgrading then.

    I have 10.2 dated 2006. Is it possible to get an upgrade to the latest version or do I need to repurchase a copy of the program?
