Absolutely love it - especially changing colours - sometimes just one colour and the who thing looks different - I've had over 100 versions as I've tweeked this and that - but it's just a click. you can't do it with graph paper. Love the yardage calculations - well everything. Yes, a learning curve but follow the initial lessons to familiarise yourself with the basics (and beyond) depends how adventurous/original you want to be, as you extend yourself you'll want to consult the manual. I wish there was a facility to add balance marks - especially for curves.
Haven't heard anything about version 8 - when it comes - I'm in!
Alas, no deals in the UK so take advise from your compatriots.
