The Logic Off Topic list

Joeri suggested that I pointed my question directly at emagic, since 
apparently none of the emagic guys subscribe to the list. Here is the 
reply that I got:

Hello,

Logic Plantinum 5 does not only come with a new CD; it includes a new 
USB
dongel as well. 
The dongle is -from the technical point of view -different for 
upgrades
and updates and: The box itself includes different content (in the 
upgrade
box, there´s a complete new manual and, and and). 

Beste Grüsse, best Regards
