There are also a number of hefty discounts available for students and researchers. And the upgrade policy has been excellent.

I do really wish the interface was less dated, though. But I've tried demos of Sente, Mendeley, Bibdesk and Papers and at least for the humanities, none of them come close.

one thing I am quite worried about, I had previous version during my time at university, now I think about buying my own, as I have more Macs, buying on Mac App Store seems like easy solution...but...Sandboxing...one does not have to be a developer to know it will be quite a challenge to keep Bookends there with similar functionality...and 80 Euros is some amount of money
I hope Jon will find some sort of solution (he is currently the only one offering his product there, Sente and Papers teams are not interested)

I was able to complete the switch in less than two hours, including converting my existing reference database and creating the citation style I needed. (It would be nice if I could have found a way to import my existing custom citation styles, or if I could locate an online repository of them.)

I;m used to creating bibliographies that are numbered, and with having my references within the word document written in with numbers not author names. How do I use bookends to do this?
I've played around with the format manager a lot, but it always just formats int he word documents by alphebetizing the authors, and not using numbers in text...
If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it! I like that this software is better for mac users, but if I can't figure this out, then I don't think I'll make the switch over...

I downloaded a trial a couple of days ago and imported 15 references from my Endnote library. Bookends "quit unexpectedly" within minutes and has done so several times when attempting to quit the application normally. More seriously, it has just crashed while I was simply moving the pointer from one item in the menu bar to the next. I have also been trying out Sente, and so far it has been completely stable. I haven't yet used the two applications enough to make any other useful comments about them.

So, an app can still drag down the entire system. Like back in the 90's! :)
But maybe this is a graphics driver issue? I hear something about a graphics core update coming in 10.5.5...

Also to clarify; a forced shut down and restart of the comp was what I meant.
We have had a few other reports like this, and it is a conflict with some process running on your (her) Mac. The solution is to reboot the Mac in Safe mode (Shift key held down) and then reboot regularly. This should fix the problem. If it doesn't, please contact Sonny Software for tech support (support@sonnysoftware.com).

Well, I'll email you instead of communicating here.
