Hi Elena,

If you are thinking of buying online usually you need to download, and it takes time but if you are in a country where the Internet connection is excellent then no worries on your part.

Unlike what I experienced, I had to download the program for almost two whole days nonstop. The first try had been for almost half a day and suddenly I had to retry again. You can imagine the horrors I was experiencing.

Luckily, I had broadband access, I wonder if it was a dial-up?

On CD, I think you can order CDs at extra cost. Why don't you check at their site.

Good luck with your findings.

Trados Feb 14, 2007

Once you purchase Trados, you can download it and reinstall as many times as you need. The speed depends on your connection.

You can burn the downloaded file and make your own CD.

And you can install Trados on two computers.
