Hi Duane;

If your going to obsolete a Mac , then we will allow you to specify which Mac your upgrading for version 4, especially because Version 4 is a Universal Binary now and most people will want to be running it on a x86 PowerBook.

And No, you can't do a cross grade to another type of device (i.e. Camera to Mac or Mac to Camera) when upgrading to a new version of Astro IIDC. If you want to cross grade, then you can use the reduced price second copy offering for version 4:

Hope that explains things..

PS:

On a side note, I'm going to be releasing Astro IIDC 4.00.03 this week, which fixes a couple of minor bugs and includes a PowerPC only version of Astro IIDC that runs on G3 / G4 / G5 Macs and OSX 10.3.x to 10.5.2. Because it's built with CodeWarrior it's a bit faster on PowerPC (especially the Altivec code sections)  than the XCode compiled version of the Universal Binary.

My current ver 3 copy is registered to my old G4 laptop—which was nice when my Fire-i 

died, because it was all ready to go when I got the Imaging source camera. Hopefully this 

camera will last me longer than my most recent MacBook Pro, which I'm already itching to 

upgrade.
