UPDATING TO 2008

UPDATING TO 2008

UPDATING TO 2008

(OP)
I've hesitated to upgrade to 2008 for various reasons, one of which is the speed of the program vs the 2007 version, which I've been using.  I've heard 2008 runs slower.  Whether this is true or not...is one of the reasons for this post.  Do people find it does run slower and ... are people happy (or not) using 2008 vs 2007.  

Thanks for your insights
John

RE: UPDATING TO 2008

So far I've found it faster than 2007 ... once you get used to the new UI and customise it.

About the same speed to open and close files, but snappier with the command selections.

cheers
