^ I seriously doubt the links Katie posted will help either, you're all free to "give it a go" though and hope for the best.

As I've said before it can only improve as time goes on, if you don't like how vB5 functions or "feels" then simply run version 4 and customize it how you want.

Think of it this way... many of you are on slightly older version of vB4 regardless correct? (Some of you 3.x) The point being you've heard all the stories from fellow forum owners about heavily customizing their site either with many modifications and/or custom style changes and then when it was time to upgrade it was either a PIA if they were doing it themselves OR $$$ and either way that did not sound too promising so you waited and here you are now, still waiting... Why? If you think about it, 4.2.1 or 4.2.2 are solid and without issues so if you upgrade now there shouldn't be a new version out giving you issues in a month. For example, there will not be a 4.9.1 released if anything perhaps a 4.2.3 so you won't be required to redo this or that because of a huge leap between versions, my point being if you upgrade now there shouldn't be any more updating (customizing) required that will be considered a "be-in-the-way" for many thus preventing them from upgrading. So with all that said you could upgrade to 4.2.1/4.2.2, be solid for a while and simply wait on vB5 until you see the improvement you deem necessary to upgrade.
