Well, I've been waiting like everybody else I guess and was hoping to find the "grand opening" of the new version today..but no cigar I wonder what's going on. A marketing scheme maybe? nothing wrong with that, has been done before, just wondering. I'll keep watching

Right...there is another thread with over 170 posts!
But just my 2 cents...PG has "missed the window"...for me at least. I presume that 2013 will be ready to ship in late Nov. very early Dec.
If we click our heels 3 times, those dates will be upon us. I would need to get 5-6 months of use out of a mid-year upgrade and we're already down to 4 months...so there would have to be ULTRA KILLER functions in 12.5 to convince me to buy it...and if I did, it would be HIGHLY doubtful that I would buy 13 just a few months later.
This is NO complaint. I really think that BIAB and the PG people are GREAT! Just sharing some feedback.
Regards, Jim

Peter Gannon is a dentist, isn't he? BRACE yoursef... puns ahead! Perhaps that's why it's like PULLING TEETH to get any information about when to expect 2012.5! Maybe it would speed things up if we offered them a PLAQUE to express our appreciation when dot 5 ships! OK, better stop before this thread DECAYS any further. Nobody CARIES anyway. Maybe I've managed to BRIDGE the gap between now and when 2012.5 ships with a little humor... (VERY little). yesss, I know. Crummy jokes. (But at least they're clean and not X-RAYTED.) Besides, one of us had to FILL the BILL! (You know the DRILL)  LAME JOKES O METER 0_____________100___________/__

for the record, we're only doing this in the ABCESS of a new version to talk about. Once 2012.5 ships, the bad word play will stop.
(Nothing like holding a PUN to their head, eh?)
