Let me see... 1. The software does not install properly on a 64 bit Vista machine. 2. I cannot load a copy on a desk top machine and a laptop, as most reasonable software companies will allow. 3.

You would think that the "latest" would be the M030 since it is the latest; but no. Just another example of PTC incompetence.
