FOR WINDOWS 7/VISTA USERS CAD WILL ONLY COPY YOUR CURRENT SKINS AND SETTINGS TO THE NEW FOLDER .

this is a public beta release so if you’re not familiar with what a beta is all about, then wait for the final version.

in order to further improve CAD we'd like to kindly encourage you to report every possible bug here or in the comments to this blog entry.
thank you.
