Wow that sounds like a super machine and very tempting! I don't think I'll be upgrading though - I love my cameo 3 and for what I use it for it's more than adequate. I'll be very interested to see how it all goes though.
My thoughts too Sylvia but I will probably be tempted eventually !!Quote:

Thanks Shirley and Doreen. Sounds interesting but not looking to upgrade at the moment.
thank you for the info x
Thanks Doreen, I guess the new super machines will be aimed at people using their machines for business. I won't be upgrading, the Cameo 3 does all I need and more. Exciting developments though for those interested.

I have a Cameo 2 at the minute so could be tempted a bit later down the line. I don't have the room for a larger machine so it would only be the basic one, but I do like the idea of cutting thicker materials.
The upgrades sound super. I doubt I will buy until they are done with all the fixes to the basic program. I got so tired of all their upgrades locking my PC up. I wish they had invested more in their programs up front.
I'm happy with my Portrait but they sound like great machines.
My portrait meets my needs for now too
