I am still using the one that came out in 2001. I download all kinds of original records from the LDS pilot site, ancestry and Heritage Quest. I have Civil and Rev. War. pension files. I put all of these in the scrapbook area. I have 50, 000 plus names. What advantages would there be to me updating.
