I don't know BUT will send you back UP:)

I have DigitizerPro have not used 10000 though, but have used another basic design programme. I consider the expense of the DigitizerPro to be worth every penny I paid. Decided to change when I changed my machine to Janome 11000. Hope that is helpful.

I have Digitizer PRO MB but never used Digitizer 10000... However, I must say that I love PRO MB and compared to Brother PE Design 7, I consider PRO MB way better for manipulating designs. Pat

I use Digitizer Pro, I recently got an upgrade that was free, but I don't think it was to the new program, just an upgrade to the one I got in 2006. I have a 300E, so I didn't get Customizer with it, I thought it was Customizer not Digitizer that came with the more expensive machines? They're changing names, so maybe that's it, I'm not sure. I love Digitizer Pro, upgrade or not, it certainly lets me do anything I want. Hopefully Ricky or Deb will see this, they know more about it than I do. Best of luck to you! Marji
