So it depends a bit on your taste, someday I have to upgrade my machines too, because SA will no longer be patched in the 4 tree (not in the near future though). Till then I have time to decide if I go with 5 or something else like DragonFly, it all depends if I feel comfortable with that OS and even more important is it a good enough solution for my technical problems/needs. my0.02€ -- mph
