I did it - OrchidWiz
I have been debating about this for quite a while and finally broke down.
I debated for so long. ![Scratchhead](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/scratchhead.gif) Did I want to spend the money for OrchidWiz, or save that money towards the purchase of a new camera????? I decided my photography skills ![Photo](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/photo.gif) didn't warrant an expensive camera. OrchidWiz won out.
I also wondered if I could use the program if I bought a lap top, if all my files will transfer so I could use them on both. The way I understand the info, it will work even if I update to a different windows program. I hope I understand it correctly. I have bought computer programs which did not transfer. I hate going out to buy another program. ![poke](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/poke.gif) I think of all the orchids I could buy for that extra money
........Waiting

Cool Marilyn!
You will love it!
If you have any problems at all, just contact Alex and he will help you. He's a very nice guy and always ready with an answer. I've never had a problem with the program but I have contacted him about other things and always got a quick response.
If you have any questions about using the program, you can always contact me and I'll try to answer your questions. I know I haven't used a lot of what the program offers but have played around with it enough to know how to answer basic questions.

Hi Marilyn...congrats on your new Orchid Wiz program.
I have been debating on getting this program myself, and decided to wait until after this Saturday (10/18) before making my purchase. It will depend on whether or not....
...I pass the color test part of the application process for becoming an AOS student judge! ![Yikes](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/yikes.gif) I'm a little nervous, but yes, I have decided to take the plunge into judging chids at one of the AOS judging centers here in Florida. I will keep you posted.
I'm also bringing one of my vandas for exhibition and judging...hopefully I will have two pieces of good news to share on Sunday. ![Very Happy](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

I just got a copy of OrchidWiz a few weeks ago (finally!) and I am absolutely satisfied. I dont know if you are familiar with the Baker care sheets ( http://www.orchidculture.com/), but they are included in the species analysis in a much more visually friendly format than is posted on the Baker website. You'll love it!! Not to mention the fact that our very own Mauro Rosim is a HUGE contributor to the pictures of many orchids. An excellent resource!

Marilyn, you can install the OrchidWiz software on up to 2 computers and pretty sure it works with the latest and greatest (?) windows oerating system. Enjoy!
