[DUG] Upgrade considerations

[Alister Christie]

I have many components that need to play nice together that I always 
have trouble getting installed into the IDE.  The D7 to D2006 upgrade 
was painful, D2006 to D2007 was trivial.  I've been procrastinating over 
the D2007 -> 9 -> 10 upgrade.

I think my next development environment will be a Virtual Machine which 
will allow me to experiment a bit more aggressively, I understand that 
quite a few people are using VMs for this purpose these days.
