    OK, now I feel guilty for my venting. I do like Logos Bible. IT has many great things going for it. Great search tools and I really like the android version. I don't mean to make it sound like I am accusing Logos of lying, I'm not. I just know website development and marketing. I've been on that side of it. 

    In the near future I will be going into missions. I will really be glad when I can open up my computer, tablet or phone and have all of those resources available to me without having lug around a library of books. For this I am very thankful to Logos Bible. I remember doing sermon prep before I go Logos. Hours spent just looking though books for one thing that I can now do in a matter seconds with Logos. It really is a great tool.

    Again sorry about the venting.

    Guilt wasn't my goal.. Sorry if that was the result. I love the product Logos produces enough to have invested several thousand dollars - and when you are in seminary every dollar is precious. Perhaps that makes me a little defensive.  Heading for the missions field my self one day Lord wiling, I can relate to the luxury of not having to lug a library around, and having everything available at the flick of a mouse and push of a button is indeed marvelous.

    For what its worth, software engine updates are always free - its the new datasets and added features that cost money. You can upgrade to 5 for free at the moment should you desire (and should you computer be capable) to do so.

    L2 lvl4 (...) WORDsearch, all the way through L10,

    Hi All,

    A quick thanks for the thoughtful conversation around this topic.  I do want to reiterate what Phil has said earlier, and let you know that the project to update the cart and checkout process is underway.  We've not lost site of it, and we're very much looking forward to rolling out this improved user experience in the near future.

    Thank you for your apology but actually didn't read you post untill after I wrote my follow up. I wrote my follow up at the same time you were writing your post, lol. So it wasn't your post that made me feel guilty, it was my own post that did. Thanks anyway though.

    Thanks for the tip about the free Logos 5 upgrade, but I am not able to find were it is free. It says I will need to pay over $600. I am not able to do that. If there is a free upgrade I sure would be thankful to know how.

    Thanks again
