L,
We have been using Quicken & later Quickbooks for about 15 years.
In that time, I have learned to NOT upgrade until around February, when they
have all the bugs worked out.
Generally several facts are true year to year:
1) QB upgrades are incremental and not really that necessary.
2) QB versions are rushed out incomplete and buggy.
3) The bugs don't get fixed until the R3 or R4 patches come out, usually in
the February time frame.
4) Upgrading early is more pain than it is worth. Let someone else be the
pioneer.
5) Upgrades are disruptive. Changing how you perform a process, not
necessarily for the better, costs you money.
We upgraded from QB 2003 to QB 2006 earlier this year. It was an
improvement, but not a BIG improvement. I'm glad I didn't spend money on QB
2004 and QB 2005.
The odds on us upgrading from QB2006 to QB 2007 are really slim. Upgrading
today would really be pretty stupid.
