Anyone gone from the 4D software to 5D? If so, are you glad you upgraded? Is 5D that different/better? I was thinking since they are having this 50% off sale I would consider the upgrade.

Woo Hoo I still have the 3D... I'm no help

Guess it's working for you so why change now. :-)

I have the 4D software, I havn't learned to use it very well yet. Do you know how much it would be after the 50% off sale? Which machine do you have? I have the Designer SE LE, got it in 2008.

Hummm, I thought they would all come in one package deal. Didn't know you had to still buy separate packages. I have the cross stitch with 4D and last year purchased the monogram. I guess I just assumed 5D had everything in one. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for asking this--I was wondering the same thing this morning. Why won't any sites selling the upgrade quote a price? I'll wait for some answers :)

I don't know but I'd call your local Viking store, if you have one.
Just a couple more days and their sale will be over so thought I'd try to get some info.
