Difference between old and new version other than price?

My guess is it's lighter, has more RAM, better graphics. Because no matter what system you get, if you clear it and have Apple install the latest OS it's all the same. Good luck to you.

More same than different. The new UE model (this one) is 1.5 inches taller and half an inch deeper. The handle makes up the bulk of the extra height which the old one didn't have. The driver configuration is almost identical, 2 tweeters, 2 3inch woofers, and slightly bigger 2.5" passive radiators (old one had 2" radiators). The sound is near identical except the new one has more bass because of the larger radiators. The price went up quite a bit from $150 to $250 MSRP. I own the old one and still very satisfied with its low/mid/high balance. If you don't mind the lack of a handle and buying used, the old fine is a great deal.

Most likely the one with the higher price has the newest update, but if you connect it to WiFi it will automatically update for free.

I don't know since I don't have the older version. The new one is very efficient.

The Ultimate is the newest version. It is designed well and seems to be a bit of an upgrade. Get the Ultimate, it is rock-solid and a real bargain.

I have both versions available. Sorry for the confusion on the description I will change it as soon as possible.

If you bought a used version as I did, you dont get all the option available as in purchasing new. The installation was ok for me, but I couldnt register it because it wasnt new purchase.

I do not know the difference between old and new. What we have is a great product. IPad fits as well as laptops of similar sizes.

Its great, but there is a newer version out. If you don't need the newer version, then this is the best for the price($700)

I don't know what they mean by "old version"...pictured is the same V2 we purchased about six years ago and also the same unit currently being sold at B&H.; Unless there's been some software or firmware update that I'm not aware, I think it's the same beast it's always been.

It's just a more comprehensive version. There are more features in the ex version. I was iffy too until I found out about the 3D poser and perspective features. They are worth the money for the upgrade alone.

wtf is right. why is this going for almost 3x it's regular price? surely there is a new and improved version out there (which normally makes the price of the older model go DOWN). does anyone know?

Judith, there really is no difference. I bought the one marked "1996" version first, because that's how I remembered the box. It also costs more than the newer version. The only outward difference is the external look, one is white and the newer is blue and red. I then bought the newer version, thinking it was different. The ONLY difference concerning contents is the new version has an additional rules sheet in Spanish. Otherwise they're identical. The size of the box, the game cards, pieces, and board are all the same. Buy the one sold by Miles Kimball, it's the cheapest and has free shipping. Hope this helps.

Yes. I found no difference in the packaging between the refurbished and new.

I don't know if I received old or new version, however, after using the product I saw no change in condition.
