I have found it very much cleaner than 3rd, both in organisation and in play, while not sacrificing the detail and options that I like. I've run a few campaigns with it; all the ones listed on http://tekeli.li/ except the Pendragon game has been run under GURPS 4th. >how heinous is keeping digital copies of the books when I own the real >ones? Explicitly illegal, unless you buy them (from e23). >Last of my rambling questions, while I know that the crunchy books are >no use in 4th ed (Noooo!

Generally not much of a problem unless the detailed crunch is what makes the character interesting. Note the free "GURPS Update" document (on e23 among other places).
