Title: Plot Designer CD
Post by: Anne Robertson on April 17, 2005, 15:53:29
Does anyone have the Vegetable Gardeners Almanac 'vegetable plot designer' CD, please? It looks a good piece of software but expensive and I would love to borrow one or a similar product, to copy.
I have tried to draw my own plan but with pathetic results :(

I took the plunge and purchased copy last week full details
of prog can be found  at  http://thevga.co.uk/  (http://thevga.co.uk/) .
It very much a prog in the making with a very extensive database.
Furthermore its a UK based software house and i think should be supported
rather than destroyed by copying.
Unfortunately there is no demo available but web site give rough idea
of what prof does.
I have tried paper recording in the past but lost tooo many bits of paper
so decided to give VGA a try.

Cheers

Afraid you are right proterra - especially with small R&D companies like that.  Shouldn't really be knicking their stuff...

I hang my head in shame re wanting to copy CD but confess £29.99 is way out of my price range.

£29.99 is just to download an update! The CD costs £35.
