We just got our 7.0 upgrade the other day and so far it looks like a big improvement over 6.1 This time we opted to shell out the extra money for the State Machine Editor Toolkit. For a company with new/learning programmers, anything that can simplify the process is welcome. While we may not acquire the "deeper" knowledge of exactly what's transpiring on the PC, this is a trade off that we're willing to live with. What counts is getting the machine working and delivered on time. The polish that's been added to the default icons and widgets in LV7.0 is also really nice. Nothing like a slick looking interface to help sell a customer on a machine. PA
