BW8 upgrade price increase in March

If you've been dragging your feet about upgrading from BW6 or BW7 to BW8, you might want to get the lead out. Upgrade price goes up this March. Read more HERE.

In case nobody told you... I love BibleWorks 8. Have I ever mentioned that?

I wish I had the knowledge to make good use of something like that.

I took Latin in elementary school, Greek in Jr.High, but that was so long ago. Now, when I want to look up an original word, I feel like I'm 99% of the way to the right meaning, but that 1% will only be crossed with a better grasp of the entire language.

There just aren't enough hours in the day, but the thought of waiting till my full-time parenting days are over is depressing!

Is there really much of a benefit in upgrading from BW7 to BW8? I love BW7, but it just doesn't seem to be worth the $150 for the upgrade...

Hey Matt. Here is a page that details the upgrade specifics from 7 to 8.

Bibleworks 8 was the first version I owned, and honestly, I can scarcely imagine what else I would want in a Bible program. (Although I'm sure they'll come up with something in the next upgrade.)

Isn't that true, Tom?

But I have thought of and suggested something: type-setting. By that I mean, make the text reflect paragraphing and indenting, such as in poetry.

Hi DJP. Comparing BW7 that I am using with BW8 side by side, I still hesitate to upgrade 7 to 8. Can you give any decisive reason to do so?

I like the way it does references, and as you see it includes more resources. I like being able to delete or name or otherwise manipulate tabs.

Here is a poll and discussion.

Here is a better analysis than I could make.

And check these.

Hope that helps.
