Is this for real?

Post by wlopatin »

I just noticed, when I closed by VS2020 Ultimate, a popup asking if I want to buy the new VS2022 Ultimate and Paintshop Pro Ultimate both for $79.99. Seems to cheap to be a real deal. Has anyone seen and perhaps made the purchase.
Thanks for the input.

If the offer comes from Corel, I'd be inclined to take it rather than regard it as a "poisson d'avril" or April Fool's joke...

Corel routinely sends pop-ups when one exits the program. As well, Corel sends emails with various offers. It's not difficult to check the veracity of these offers before you pull the trigger on a purchase.

As time passes from the release of the latest version of VS and Paintshop, these offers normally become more attractive.
