Had a look at it, and was wondering, if the version that I have now is working very well, what is the advantage of the up grade.

I never even got to use the last version I downloaded, still sitting there on the desktop in it's zip file form,

well, now it's been replaced with a new version, that I will hopefully get to use now that I have the gpusb and cables. Still cloudy though
