I use www.genealogysupplies.com/index.php - for the UK version - as I prefer to get the CD - however there is also a download option.

Thanks for all the opinions on the UK vs US version. I've now also asked the UK distributor what the points of difference are, and they say that the UK-specific features include: * UK spellcheck * UK date formats * UK sources * links to UK websites in the WebSearch tab They also offer free technical support. At the time of writing, I think I'm now inclined to go for the UK version - though knowing me, I might change my mind a few more times... Arthur
