Default PET 7.3 for Win 10 64 bit

Has anyone heard of these guys?
If so, are they legit?
AUTOPARTSCATALOGUE.BLOGSPOT.COM

"I’m interested in a 64 bit version of the Porsche PET to run on Windows 10 64 bit.
Is one available yet?"

"Yes is available our price 150$ USD with remote support installation and activation license key"

Porsche dealers run PET 7.3 update 387 on Windows 7 - 64bit.
I have only been able to run it on Windows XP in VM.

Why not just go to the Porsche website and look at it here, for free? http://www.porsche.com/usa/accessori...artscatalogue/

The functionality of PET 7.3 is far beyond the capabilites of a simple pdf file.

School me then. What am I missing? I go to the pdf, scroll until I find what I need and go from there. I have used that site for so many years, that I know where everything is. It takes me no time at all to find what I am looking for and to get the correct part number.

Easy

You have all models (up to today) available. Directly accessible.
Original part numbers show up and also all updates.
Prices are directly availably.
You can see where the part was used too (not only in the 928 series).
Change of language without problems.
Assembly of a parts list is easy (including amount needed to get the job done). Get everything you need and email to Roger
M Option list
Engine codes
Transmission codes
Magnifying glass function (great for assembly)
...

There is more for sure, but I wrote this out of my head right now...

Huge +1 for that functionality, it's the basis for knowing over what year range a part was used. Also:

Wildcard P/N searches for all of a given type of part (e.g. - 999512* brings up all hose clamps for a given model (save those that start with an N....)

Keyword searches, for when you have no idea about a part number but can describe the part. There's a learning curve to what Franz calls some things, but that's part of the fun.
