Here's what I posted:

If you have a requirement to create illustrations but don't want to 
shell out megabucks for the big name programs, take a look at

http://site.xara.com/offers/xaraxtreme/

I've been using Xara for several years, and find it to be a fantastic 
value (even having paid full price).  The offer above is for the 
previous version, for only $19, available till the end of the month. You 
won't believe what this product can do.

(No commercial interest in the company, just a very satisfied user.)
