Lycoris Desktop/LX 1.4 Available for Download |
| An evaluation edition of Lycoris Desktop/LX 1.4 is now available for free download. This edition only contains GPL software and the license prevents its use after the initial 45-day evaluation period. A retail edition of the product was released on September 13 and can be bought directly from the Lycoris Store (starting at US$45). You can find out more about Lycoris Desktop/LX 1.4 by reading the press release and by visiting the sneak peek pages created during the beta testing period, but the company's product pages have not been updated. If you are thinking about ordering the product, be aware that the Lycoris community forums contain a significant number of complaints by users who ordered it several months ago, but have yet to receive the product, or any response to their enquiries. Here is the download link for the evaluation edition: update4.iso (564MB).
