All of the reviews I have seen are on this site and from people that have upgraded so. . .there may be confirmation bias - definition "the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of one's existing beliefs or theories.". So. . We all think/want the upgrade to be worth the money we spent (multi-thousands) so convince ourself it is better. . .substantively better.
Not meaning to insult. . Just a serious question and would like some opinions or third party reviews. Note that I have ordered the upgrade myself. . .
