Over 600MB and it's free! Kudos to Cakewalk for really paying attention to customer feedback and embracing the idea of continuous improvement.

They've effectively abandoned X2 though, and I aint in a hurry to upgrade to X3.

Got a $99 customer-loyalty upgrade offer for X3PE.

Any idea if it will run on XPPRO?

X2PE runs fine with no crashes so far on XP.

According to their site (google is your friend):

https://www.cakewalk.com/products/SONAR/X3-Producer/

XP and Vista are no longer supported. Might run fine, but issues/errors won't be supported.

No Windows XP support??? | Cakewalk Forums

Turns out that $99 bucks later X3 CANNOT be installed on XP OS.

Free? The ad I saw said $29. Is it worth it to upgrade fromX1 to X3? What are the improvments?

The OP was referring to the X3e patch, not the full version update which for $29 is very tempting (but I think the cheapest option is $99 for existing registered Cakewalk users).
