I have owned graphics &/or web editing software since my first 386 Compaq PC in the early 90's. Later I discovered I liked the PaintShop Pro version best, but when the Pro 10 version went out of production, I considered new graphics software. The Serif software was suppose to be reasonably priced & compatable, even stating themselves to be "Vista's new graphics program", quote.
I have found it to be anything but so. In fact, a number of functions and the entire tutorial cannot be read & fails to work at all. File extensions are lost and misplaced, causing lost work, and many of the functions will lock up your computer. I have had a total of 119 registry errors since installing it, and overall it is not only a poor performing software, but much of it doesn't work.
This is not a hastedly written review either. I have owned the software for several months and have logged in well over 250 hours of "trying to make it work".
Plus you have to call Serif to give them your name and phone number when you install the software so they can send you useless emails and promotions for other things to buy.
My satisfaction with the buying experience overall is 0. I gave them 1 star simply because it was the lowest I could go. I would request a refund if I could.
Maybe X3, factory imbedded, or later versions will be better. But personally, I'll look elsewhere for affoardable graphics programs. I certainly would not buy a PC with this software imbedded into it unless it was clearly demonstrated to work before I purchased it.Get more detail about DrawPlus X2 Graphics Studio.
