Hi,
Thank you! I reviewed as a Rookie user although I have used Power Director 10 Ultra for awhile, I am still (my opinion) a rookie at video editing.

A very nice review Jim, thanks! ~Tom~

Thanks to James and Carl for taking the time to give their impressions of the new PD11. I suppose for simple family-oriented editing and producing, PD11 Ultra is perfect.

I didn't upgrade from PD9 to PD10 because there were no reports of speed increases during the Producing phase, or of improved HQ-DVD video quality. Those are the two most important "features" that may me decide to upgrade, or stay put with PD9. Now, at least it seems from James's review that at least video producing is faster with PD11. Also, I see that the discounted upgrade price only applies to those who have either PD9 or PD10. Those who have PD8, or earlier, must pay full-price for the new PD11. I suppose that's further incentive for me to upgrade NOW from PD9 to PD11. When PD12 comes out (probably) next Summer, anything prior to PD10 will not be eligible for the significant upgrade discount.

I'll keep my eye on the forum PD11 remarks/impressions for a few more days and then come to a decision. Thanks in advance to everyone who takes the time to provide feedback.
