YAY!!! You are going to LOVE it!!! It's well worth the money, I wouldn't say it if it weren't true.
Everybody I know who has ordered it received it in 2-3 days.

Only a day and a half left and the deal is ~POOF~ gone. Sunday at midnight is when it's over.

Got mine installed, and what a blast I'm having looking up all my 'chids. I do want to say though, the Tolumnia section is a bit lacking. Only 2 of mine are in there. Guess that's one place some updating might occur? Maybe several of my crosses are either unregistered or too new? It's just an awsum package - one that I already feel pretyy comfortable with.

Ross, there are lots of named hybrids that aren't registered hybrids so they wouldn't be in OW. Check for your chids on the RHS list...if they're not there either, they're just not registered.
Isn't it easy to use? So much info at your fingertips!

Yes, it's a blast! I love it! Glad for the discount, as that tipped the scales. BTW, there are lots of orchids not awarded in OW. Lots of the Jewells, for instance. Not sure why the Tolumnias are short, but that's OK. I've been finding lots of mine and enjoying the cultural tips. This program is so easy I haven't looked at the tutorial or the help files at all. I really appreciate the relationship Marty cultured that got us this deal.

Ross as soon as you get your missing Toluminias awarded, they will magically appear in the next update :>)

I'm bummed. I went over my budget again and again to see how I could come up with the money for it, and it's a no go.  This super deal is really at the worst possible time for me. Once I graduate and get a job, I'll try to get it in the coming years!

I know how you feel camille. I've been drooling over the thought of having as extensive a resource as Orchid Wiz, but I'm in my first year of college.  I just can't afford it, and I'd spend so much time looking through it I wouldn't get anything done.
I prefer to look at it this way: For now, OB is a much better source of info than any I've ever had before, I get to meet great new people, and in a few years I might be able to afford OW too!

But we have to think of it this way: If we buy the software, we can't afford more orchids for a looong time. Can you imagine that? No more new orchids?  Actually, I don't want to imagine that! I NEED at least one new (cheap) chid per month or else I start to show orchid withdrawal symptoms!

Camille and Greenbean...
Orchidwiz is a luxury item...your education is much more important  Nobody should ever buy anything they can't really afford...if it cuts into paying bills and things like tuition, it's not a must-have (and that includes orchids  )
You have access to Orchidboard...and me, if you ever need specific information on an orchid, let me know.
Keep up the good work
