Actually, I'd say that X was the first. Corel purchased Jasc when version 9 was current. Then maybe 6 months later, version X was released. It had enough enhancements and differences that you could see Corel's hand in it (at least that's the way it appears to me). I was worried about it, because Corel has a little bit of a reputation for delivering products before they're ready. Anyway, they did a good job with version X.
The big difference in XI is that the Browser is now an Organizer (e.g. you can label images with keywords and then search on keywords, etc). Whether it's an improvement is open to question. It does have a few nice new tools and some improvements on existing tools.
