kGTD questions

Sarge | Sep 23 2006

I'm considering purchasing a omnioutliner pro license so I can use kGTD. I just have a few questions.

  1. Firstly, you DO need the pro version of omnioutliner to use kGTD don't you?
  2. Am I right in saying that my (lovely brand new) macbook contains omnioutliner version 3 already, so all i would need to buy from the omni site is an upgrade from version 3 to version 3 pro?
  3. If I were to reformat/start my mac again (ok, I admit I'm a switcher, so I don't know what term you use for starting the mac again :p) would that mean I have to purchase another license? How exactly does the licensing thing work I guess is what I'm asking here as I'm considering to start/reformat my mac soon and I'd hate to get a license then not be able to use omnioutliner again after a reformat.

I think this is all I need to know for now. Thanks :)

1) Yes you do need OO Pro for kGTD.
2) Yes, all you have to do is purchase he upgrade.
3) If you reformat the drive and reinstall all the software all you have to do is download the upgrade again and re-enter the serial number for OO Pro.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.
