We're both interested in geneology, but he is more active about searching. He's not computer oriented at all (part of the reason we have a Mac) and loves this program. He's converted quite a bit of the stuff he had on paper to the program format. I'd say the program is well worth the $35! I think I was the one to start the discussion about the 800 number for orders - it changed right around the first of the year. I don't have the new one with me, so I can't be sure whether the one given above is correct or not. I'll try to re-post it later.
