<div>I'd agree with Jason...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But also add..</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If it works.. why would you bother to upgrade and make work for yourself currently.. probably only 2 reasons.</div>
<div>1. New feature, that your users demand, or that you need - but evaluate whether it is worth the total cost of an upgrade</div>
<div>2. Bugs... you have something nasty that you need to fix.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>People may agree / disagree here..</div>
<div>But personally I think the best motivation from 4.x to 5.x / 6.x / 7.x is to get away from Windows.</div>
<div>I have no problem with Windows itself.</div>
<div>But I think the appliance model is a lot better. There could be some improvements, but it is totally a step in the right direction.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
