Rene- I agree with most of what you listed as improvements. But my overall
impression is that Schematic received most of the real enhancements. The
PCB stuff is mostly frills. It is more polished, but I think it was done a
great

Bit it looks so pretty. Is that not enough for you?
It has lots and lots of frills that should make you feel better and that
should enhance your productivity.
And
I agree, also BOMs are much better as is database linking. The new
schematic wiring modes are excellent and real time savers, The new scripting
stuff is very cool, easily add functions that are not present for obscure
things. Simulation is now usable and quite good.
The whole package 'feels'
Gladly.
-the mouse scroll for panning and zooming as well in the
schematic as in the pcb. I don't have to add the panning
in the schematic with the right mouse. That was overdue.
-When exiting with a lot of files open, I'm asked which
I want to have saved.
-renaming copper that is already

Rene- I wish I could enjoy using DXP as much as I've enjoyed 99se. Maybe

Steve- The only place I've seen the 2004 name used is on Altium's web
site and marketing materials. The program's splash screen and about menu
all call it DXP. I think the marketing whizzes at Altium came up with the

You are facing a learning curve when you move to DXP or to 2004 (the
magnitude of the learning curve is in dispute, but everyone except
Altium agrees that it is there). Why waste your time learning an
orphaned product? You get 2004 for free if you bought or downgraded to
DXP. If you have
