I just upgraded to 1.6. Its pretty much the same. I have an 83+ I wonder if they're gonna come out with a new 83+ OS. I also dont understand why it went from 2.22 to 2.30.
Go figure!

I don't think I want to upgrade to v1.6... I don't like warnings...

what do you mean warnings?

>>...such as the warning that firewalls may interfere with linking...

At least linking doesn't interfere with firewalls...

That's always been there.

Does it have IRQ monitoring so that it doesn't randomly search through COM ports and disconnect my modem? Does it still let you download any APP without paying for them like 1.5?

Thanks man ưne of my problems resolved now.

I have absolutely NO idea why TI Connect 1.6 is now compatible with Windows XP SP2...version 1.5.3 was just as compatible.

I didn't have to reboot to install it (under XP), which I believe is an improvement. :-)

Yeah, why didn't they just name it 2.23? Maybe they made some major changes and changed it to 2.30 becuase it was a large update or something.

I have yet to comprehend the method behind the madness of version numbers. IS there even a method, or does it vary for every programmer?

I don't know, I think we all just make up our own way.

Every time I add several new things to a program, I check it and make sure the entire program works. When I've fixed it to the point that it does, I increase the version number by 0.1. Sometimes, however, I don't get to a computer in time, and I continue programming, so released programs may end up increased by .2 or more. (Like what happened to Timerize 68k; I released 1.4 to replace 1.0, simply because I never uploaded 1.2 and 1.3. The interim versions are still on my computer.)

no, its ordered actually but it goes somewhat like this:

Minor updates, like beta to final or some minor fixes go up 1 tenth of a number.

Major releases go back to full numbers

but generally it varies from person to person. :)

yeah, and then there are the different editions, like platinum, gold, silver and those.

true

Is version 1.6 windows xp service pack 2 compatible this time? (the english one) cuz last time the thing deleted my whole account and i spent so many hours fixing it!!!

yes, it is this time

Well, yeah, but the definitions of "minor update" and "major update" can vary a LOT between people. ;-)

I just spent 2 hrs downloading TiConnect 1.6 and then I got an "Error: The package could not run a program needed for installation to finish. Please contact your package vendor." And now, my computer won't let me uninstall v1.5.3, it says that I can only install currently installed programs. *Gives TI the finger*

>>install currently installed programs
Sorry about the typo, i meant uninstall.
