Babylon discount
cyberdiva:
Thanks, cacoder, for your helpful account of your Babylon upgrade. It sounds as if the pluses and minuses balance out in the move to version 9. In that case, I think perhaps I'll stay with version 6, which I really like except for the fact that I now have to write or paste the words into Babylon.

Yes, i guess you're right. Thanks. If I get really fed up with having to spoonfeed Babylon, I'll probably give Click Cutter a try. I'm glad to know about it. I'm not too worried about its working with Win 7 64-bit, since just about all the programs I've moved from my WinXP machine work on the new computer, too. I was really surprised to see that.
Curt:
Babylon 9 has long at last been updated. 6 months it took for this new version to be launched. They built inn an OCR scanner, but... unfortunately it didn't change anything. I am not going to use Babylon, (ever?), because it still doesn't support Firefox 4. So much for a lifetime license. Something is seriously wrong inside that company.

cyberdiva:
Curt, what you and cacoder have said convinces me to stay with Babylon 6. I'm wondering, though, about your statement re version 9 not supporting Firefox 4. Perhaps I missed it, but is there a reason you don't just move to Firefox 5?
Curt:
-because of you I have now upgraded to Firefox 5, but
on my computer, Babylon 9 doesn't work with FF 4 or 5.
