Rids, regarding Carrara, I am sure I saw in the Daz forums that it is possible to upgrade to Carrara 7 from 5 for the same price as upgrading from 6. However, if you want Carrara 6 Pro it is available free on the cover of Digital Arts Magazine this month.

I received a reply from E-on about the upgrade.

V7I costs £648.16 

V7I upgrade from V6I is £286.06

V7I upgrade from V5I is £503.32.
This is an special offer price which expired at the beginning of February but they are still willing to sell it for this price. 

Upgrade from V5I to V6I to V7I would cost me £466.28 (This is the exchange rate at todays rate but in effect would be much less as the pound was much stronger when I actually purchased V6I)

Therefore, if I upgraded from V5I to V7I it would cost me more than it would to upgrade from V5I to V6I to V7I even with the special price.
