Has anyone used Xara X? It seems to be rather expensive and I wondered if it's worth its price.
Any opinions and feedback would be much appreciated - thanks.

I checked out the latest version last night and I personally don't find anything over PS, although I don't know a lot about Xara.

Isn't Xara predominantly a vector application (and as such, not even remotely related to PS) for use with technical illustrations for things like 3-d diagrams?

I seem to recall some discussion between it and CorelDRAW, and Xara coming out on top for specific applications that CorelDRAW 10 may have addressed.

I did notice on their site a corel plugin?

The examples on xara's site was unimpressive.

Many thanks for the responses. It seems that no-one has actual experience of the program.

I believe that Xara used to be Corel - or they merged, or something, hence the similarity.

Thanks again.
