When AOL 8 first came out I upgraded to it just to see what it was like. It's really a fairly painless process, Connie. The installation program will ask if you're a new or current member as well as if you're installing AOL on a new computer or upgrading an already existing installation. It will also ask you if you'd like to keep a working copy of the original installation (should you decide that you don't really like the way the new version works). During the installation, all of your current settings and saved files (like e-mails or downloads) can be copied to the new version. And as you've said, you'll get two more screen names, and that will give you an additional 4MBs of Web space.
I've cancelled my access to AOL (only wanted to check how version 8 worked with forum - I'd foolishly hoped that 8 might allow e-mail from the forum to get through, but no ). But I just checked the summary of the forum's access log and there have been 79 hits recently from people using AOL 8, so maybe one of them will be able to give more info on how 8 is working for them.
