<div>I used to buy a new version of SA every couple of yrs myself - even since version 3.0. Then at version 9.0? when they changed the total format I stopped. Last version I purchased and am still using version 8.0 - MUCH easier to use. I changed to the newer versions and stayed with them for a while, then would switch back. My brother played with my version
9.0 and refused to change.</div>
