But for what I see in CP at the moment, there would have to be some big changes. The things that sticks in my mind right now, when looking at CP, I would feel that I was actaully getting less than I have in Rebel 10 DOS right now. I hope that they add and change a few things and we do not get less that what we already have. Well that is my only fear.
