Can somebody give me a very quick rundown on the pros of subversion vs cvs?

If there's a good reason to migrate... we're currently using CVS and it 
works well for us, so would need a decent reason to go to the effort of 
migrating our cvs repos.

We're eclipse as our cvs client btw. Can't go past eclipse for ur CF IDE 
now IMO - I love it. It has everything.
