Oh I envy you, I would love to have the Duetta, or the newer Quattro 2.
But both machine are WAY out of my budget.
Sorry I can't help you with the PE Design Next. I have the Floriani Suite Pro
digitizing software and I am still trying to learn how to use that myself.
Good luck with learning the software.

It's been 4 months now and I'm still having trouble with the program. Anyone have expertise with that program? The dealer promised me it is more user friendly than V5.0 but I'm not seeing it! I always start my designs in Corel Draw and transfer to PE Design. Just doesn't do well, heavy sigh.
