Vegas 7 vs. Vegas Pro 8

[SvenF]

Hey guys,
I was given a laptop for christmas, and now I have to install all the programs I had on my old pc. When it comes to Sony Vegas, I had the Vegas 7 on the pc, now I'm wondering whether I should install the newer version (Pro 8) or if I should keep the older version. The problem is that I have a project on my pc, and I don't know if this project still works when I'm going to use Vegas 8, so that I can continue the editing of this project? In addition, are there any huge differences between the two versions? Thanks for your help.

right well basically you wont be able to carry on editing with sony vegas 8. so what you could do is have sony vegas 7 untill you finally complete this project ( which is obviously amazing!) and then delete the .7 version and then install the .8ersion. :dontknow: v
