These things are like buses. You wait around for years (literally) and then 2 turn up at once.
I agree with Ian’s assessment of PB4 - new features, tweaks to existing ones and bug fixes are being added rapidly during the beta and the developers seem committed to adding features after the beta is completed and official release occurs.
My own use of PB includes using it as a font end to OneNote. OneNote’s ‘print into’ feature is good for capturing conent from other applications and the notes part of PB4 is more suited to adding brief summary notes to help searching rather large amounts of content.
I’ll have to admit that I’d assumed that Tinderbox for Windows would never seen see the light of day. I’ll be interested in trying it when it is available.

Hi Alex
I can confirm that UR & WF links are permanent.

A great idea.
I am a big fan of the PersonalBrain concept and interface but stopped using it long ago because of poor support and no further development for years. PB4 is very promising but the pricing is too high.
I am thinking of using MindManager to link to UR items.

Looks like July, most likely. Burning midnight oil
