Version: CyberLink PowerDirector 8.0
"When will they fix the memory leak?!?"
Pros: UI looks good
Cons: The longer you work, the more memory it requires. You have to save/close/restart it at least every 5 min which is very annoying especially if you work with large video projects and have to reload the large video files.
Summary: This is junk!!! Don't even waste your precious bandwidth downloading the trial!

Version: CyberLink PowerDirector 8.0
"Why O Why did I download this thing!"
Pros: Its good for those without patience .... they get to practice not losing it when they use this program.
Cons: When it came to running on my new tricked out Win 7 machine it was a total stinker. Had to run it in a weird compatability mode to get a few features working. Totally annoying! Ran it on my old machine instead to mixed results
Summary: MEH !
