I'm going to the '08 roll out in a week and a half.. but looking at the vid's on their site.. there is lots of great new idea's.. lots of new drawings upgrades which were desperatly needed. There's still more they can do in this area.. and I'll keep putting in my enhancement requests but.. from what I see.. I can't wait to get my hands on it.. The new GUI is going to save lots of time [well.. I hope so..] it may take a bit of getting used to but in time...

Just installed it on my workstations yesterday. Today will be the first day of using it and until the rest of the guys get it installed on their computers I'll save copies of old files with _2008 appended to the file names. I like the interface and will slowly get rid of the toolbars I have docked to the sides of the screen.

I too like the new gui changes(i think). Also from videos being able to manipulate the dimensions like that is nice, specialy how you can adjust the "arms" that go to dims.
