What is the difference between an Update and an Upgrade?
• An ‘Update’ includes changes (fixes and enhancements) to the Libronix DLS software engine and/or new versions of your currently-owned addin modules and resources, etc. An ‘Update’ can be downloaded at no charge using either of the two methods above. • An ‘Upgrade’ includes new books, addins, and features that you do not currently own. You can ‘upgrade’ to a larger collection or to a newer version of your current collection. For instance, if you own a ‘Scholar’s Library (ND)’, you could upgrade to a ‘Scholar’s Library: Gold (ND)’. Or, if you own a pre-3.0 ‘Scholar’s Library (RA or QB)’, you could upgrade to a 3.0 ‘Scholar’s Library (ND)’. An upgrade must be purchased, and a discount may be available. To see what ‘upgrades/discounts’ you qualify for, enter your Customer ID in the Upgrade Now! box.
Updates are minor releases that include bug fixes and small enhancements. These releases are indicated by a “small” version number change. For example, Komodo IDE 4.0 to Komodo IDE 4.x is an update. Upgrades are major releases that include significant new functionality. These releases are indicated by a “large” version number change. For example, Perl Dev Kit 6.x to Perl Dev Kit 7.0 is an upgrade.
