A Few Questions about OB

Hello,

I am quite interested in this software, but I need to ask a few questions first.

Firstly, I live in a remote part of Australia, so my internet connection isn't very good (28.8kbps). I was wondering how big the whole OB package is? If its too big I'd get a CD.

Secondly, if I wanted to buy more software (like ObjectDock Plus etc.), if I kept renewing the ObjectDesktop.net subscription, would I get free updates for them as well?

Lastly, is all the software included covered on the features page?

Thanks,

MG

I think you are on the right track to order the Object Desktop 2007 CD. It would take a number of hours to download at that speed. OD 2007 does not include ObjectDock Plus nor does it include CursorXP Plus. Yep the features page just about covers it. Although they do throw in some other freebies from time to time. I hope that helps.

I get 28.8 occansionally (when I'm lucky), and it does take some time to download things. The CD might be a good idea, but I've never gone that route. You'll still want to keep up to date with Stardock Central, and I'm not sure SDC will recoginize software installed from the CD. Maybe someone who has used the CD method can answer that.

Secondly, if I wanted to buy more software (like ObjectDock Plus etc.), if I kept renewing the ObjectDesktop.net subscription, would I get free updates for them as well?


If you purchase ObjectDock Plus, you'll get a discount for being an ODNT subscriber, but OD+ isn't a yearly renewal item. You'll get all updates up until the next version. We're at version 1.5 now, so everything up to version 2.



Lastly, is all the software included covered on the features page?


There's actually a few things in the ODNT package that aren't listed there.
