Just waiting for mine to show up on the door step and I see there are pros and cons but is it worthwhile, to put it on my system when I get it, or keep using Poser 6?  

Since you bought it just install it on your system but DON'T uninstall Poser 6.  Keep it on your system and just create a new Runtime from the Poser 6 directory into Poser 7.  I'm sure all the issues will be fixed with Service Releases.

Keep both... there are likely to be some P7 bugs, and also a lot of python scripts that won;t work in P7 for a few weeks. it never hurts to just leave an old version installed at the same time.

I actually have a vanilla P6, a P6 sr3, and P7 installed here.

I have P6 and P7 installed as well. When P6 first came out I had P4 installed and left it on my machine for a very long time before I really got comfortable with P6. As a matter of fact I've only been using P6 for about 6 months. I usually don't jump at the new versions of poser when they are released because I want to see how others are doing. This wasn't the case with P7 I jumped on it and glad I did.

I've kept both installed, but so far, but I haven't run into any major problems with P7; the more I use P7, the more I appreciate  the improvements like the REAL undo (can even restore an deleted figure, yeaaaa!!), the improvements in the render engine, and the being able to handle multiple Runtimes without exiting on. So far, so good.

Even as a P7 tester, I've only fallen back to P6 sr3 when I need something like shader spider, or a P6 specific utility.

P7 just runs soooo much faster here.

Absolutely. The application has some great features and between the improvements to the library management, the threaded rendering support and multipel undo the thing has already paid for itself in saved time for me.

I had to fall back to P6 for a large 236 mb scenes I was working on. P7 just freezes up on it. I need to finish it, so took it back into P6 where I was able to still move the camera or pose the figures. P7 just buzzed and froze.

But I do like many of the new P7 features.  But now I know for smaller scenes.
