I just got my copy on SAT and downloaded/activated this AM. Have not had time to play with it.............I will tell you I do prefer getting the CD rather than just code to download..........I want to have the "hard copy" that I can put my hands on...............

With that being said, all of the "reviews or promos" say that EQ8 is much more logical, intuitive, and easier to use than either EQ6 or EQ7............sure hope so............

I've had EQ7 for over a year, but never could get a good hang of it and without Rhonda's tutorials, was lost.

I downloaded EQ8 and did the Free Sunday tutorial, and I'm already loving it compared to 7. I think if I'd have figured out 7 more, I may feel differently but so far, 8 is going to be much easier to navigate around, I think it's more intuitive and less - "if you don't know where to find something, you never will"

I bought a boxed version of 7, and it did not come with a manual, so I'm in the same boat with both as far as having to download the manual.
