Dan Bookwalter Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Earlier this week i ordered the NI Developer Suite , when the order was complete they gave me an estimated ship date of January 22nd ?!?!??! I can understand with hardware that there may be long lead times , but , it seems to me that software shouldnt really have these long lead times.... i was hoping to get my hands on it as i am anxious to try XControls with my latest project :-( oh well , guess i will have to wait until the next project....

You should be able to download it and register it using a serial that NI gives you - you don't have to wait for the physical disks. You can even use it in eval mode for 30 days or so until you can convince them to give you your serial. Quote Link to comment

You could ask your Sales Rep. They can most likely help you out before late January. Quote Link to comment

When LabVIEW installs it actually installs the Pro version but your S/N and activation code open what it is licensed for , so i called NI and they activated mine for Pro , so now i am all set to go ahead and mess around with the XControls etc....

MikaelH Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 I have an idea, come to Australia and order it here; I got my 3 versions from between 3 days to 1 week :-) But it could also be so that they have stopped shipping LV 8.5, and waiting for the next release….you never know //Mikael Quote Link to comment

Awesome! I didn't know that you already had a copy and just needed to upgrade your level, not version. Glad to hear it's all good. Quote Link to comment

I was told on the phone that they were waiting on a driver before they will ship..... but with Pro activated on my machine I should be all set now.... Quote Link to comment

Ton Plomp Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 We have 3 SSPs at our work, but the one with RT was send to our old address, but the production of these CDs is a rather long process to get a new set it took almost 6 weeks. I just got one of the three November 4th quarter releases. Ton Quote Link to comment
