Hi,
Anyone on this board started to use IP 7 yet? opinions?
Is is it a worthwhile upgrade? Although I am at the point of buying the upgrade, I would like to know how the the new features are being experienced by the LL users.

I'm using it with an Epson 4000 on an older Mac. I may not be the best person to judge it, however, as I don't make heavy use of its layout features, which is where IP excels. Those features seem to have been significantly improved, as has the overall user interface, which was clunky and unattractive in IP6. They've cleaned up the menus and made them more rational and intuitive, so that commonly used controls are more easily acceptable rather than being buried, for instance, in the print dialog.
The File Browser still makes the program freeze, just as it did in IP6; and I'm not yet certain whether IP7 allows me to drag-and-drop an image from iView Media Pro to its dock icon to have it open in IP7.
It uses the same profiles as did IP6, which I've found are generally excellent.
Overall I think it was a worthwhile upgrade just because it's cleaner and prettier, and those who make heavy use of templates and other layout features are likely to be happy.
