Default VW Tool or VAG-COM ???

Which one would you guys recommend?
I particularly like the type of graphs produced in the link below. Any idea which tool they came from ?<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/344450.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/344450.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default VAG-COM seems more popular because it is continually still

being updated with new functionality whereas VW Tool is no longer being periodically updated. Also, if you want a legitimate copy of VW tool, it is quite costly....though illegal copies are on availble on teh internet...

Default Does VAG-COM support graphs ??

Also where can you purchase VW Tool from, particularly the hardware interface?
