hmmm this is a bit ot. anyway depends on what you use it for. right now I have no real job and have no need of hal over v5.21 or jaws over v6.20. I use jarte, ie 6 winamp mediaplayer classic eudora dc flashfxp textpal pdf2txt and k1000. I also have office 03 if and when I need it. so at present I have no wish to upgrade I also still use win xp.
