I'm wondering the same thing. I just signed it to this forum to help me decide if the pulse xe is worth the trouble. So far I have seen more cons than pros. Sounds like a lot of headaches. I hope I start seeing some more encouraging posts. I can't even find reviews on the pulse dxe except for Matterhackers content, which sounds like a dream machine, but I'm sure they are not going to say something negative about their own machines. I wanted to know if upgrading the pulse ex professional bundle from 8 bit to 32 bit was a good idea, but nobody knows? humm......
