Seems strange that people would sacrifice the end result for an easier interface. I find Poser 7 quite easy to use. I started with Poser 6 & I was expecting it to take me an age to pick it up, but I think it's OK. I find that if I can move around & find what I need quickly then it'll do for me.

I guess if you don't need the extra features which are now on offer in the new versions then there's no need to move forward, but I wouldn't knock P5 -P7 just because you don't have the patience to learn it.
