Although i am fighting at the moment if i should buy 2007 or wait for
2008, buying 2007 would probably mean that i have to buy an extra update
when 2008 is released - i guess?


We decided to go ahead and upgrade our 3 licenses now to CRS 2007. We're
under no pressure to move to Unicode. In fact, our campus central Data
Administration team has so far backed off from supporting Unicode because of
the disparate systems on campus and the overhead required in our databases.
Additional Vista support is, however, in our immediate future so we
purchased the CRS 2007 upgrade (I've already installed my copy and upgraded
all my apps pretty much painlessly). That'll let us wait for the first
couple of patches for Tiburon and let the Unicode conversion issues work
themselves out before we upgrade again.
