i will upgrade rightaway to vb3, but that's just me. when i jump from 22 queries to 12 on a page, that's alot to me. alot of options that are showing now on the beta site are not even finished...
i'm convinced that, once finished, vb3 will simply be a very flexible piece of software with a very attractive look.
now, we have a tendency to think it's the same but with a little change here and there... because we see the OLE template look.
ahh... and the quick reply box button that "sucks" is automatically removed if you disable the threaded look in the admin CP and use only the classic linear one.
