Darwin - Probably explains why Jim upgraded to Designer Pro 7 then.

ary the first page in Chrome raised my grphics card usage up to a extremely high level! So much so that Chrome offered to "kill page or wait".
Peter - I have heard this from several users. Of course Chrome may have been passing judgment on my design as well

I think that while there are not a whole lot of major changes, the changes made have added a lot. The live snapping has also been available in other applications, but I use Designer and not the other applications and I am really glad they added it. And the Magic Erase is very useful, especially when used on the right images and at high resolution. The zoom widgets would be enough to make me upgrade. And if I ever found myself working in the corporate environment, I would find the presentation feature useful.

But for my money, the combination of WD7's tools and Designer's range of tools would make the upgrade a no-brainer for me.
