I have upgraded my computer to 64-bit (Win7). It is a very high end machine with 64 megs of RAM, and a high end video card.

But now I'm very confused. I can buy poser 2012 now, fairly inexpensively at Amazon. I have read that it is 64-bit. And it seems the only thing that I would not get in 2012 would be the "fitting room" of 2014. That was the only feature of poser 2014 that I have been interested in, because I started using the "Dawn" figure and I have thousands of closing items for V4…

I am no longer a content creator,  so I have no need for morph creation, or morph transfers (unless it also transfers the morphs to the same clothing after 'fitting' it to Dawn. I have never used the cloth room  or the hair room-ever. 

I know that is a separate question,  but it is a worry I have in upgrading. I'm also concerned about my materials (like parrotdolphin's) that work with poser 9 would not work in  2012  or 2014 -I read something confusing about no backward compatibilty with multiple nodes of materials.

 I need to decide if I should purchase  poser 2012  now,  or wait until there's another sale for poser 2014 .

thank you for any suggestions,  or opinions !
