[Framers] FM 10 on a new computer.

[Fred Ridder]

Ummm, how does $29.95/month or $359.88/year (with the generous 0% prepayment discount...) translate into "a grand (or whatever)" for a FrameMaker subscription? Sure, that's pretty steep if you're only working on a single contract, but it's less than half the single-license purchase price in the pre-subscription days.

My turn. And I know that I'm not alone with what I describe below.

So now that I am doing occasional contract work with FM10, I fear that at some time, I also will need to upgrade my desktop hardware and attempt an FM10 reinstall and may encounter the same thing Bodvar did.
With a giant catalog of various FM files on my desktop, what are my options? I've been using Word since the mid-1990s, but totally dislike it and its propensity to glitch and do its own thing.
Subscribing to FM2020 (or whatever) for a grand (or whatever) is just not going to work for me (on SS and doing some contract work).
