I have both 5 and 7. I needed to order 5 so that I could export
anywhere near useable 3d eps graphics. Version 7 has other problems,
such as special functions not evaluating correctly, and being unable
to chose sample points in plots when exponentials are involved (one
gets an empty plot rather than a non-empty plot).
