I have to buy Maxim DL 5 to opperate my new ML8300 camera and wheel. Do I buy the Pro or the Pro Suite? Does the Maxpoint really add $100 to the value of the program?

I would love to hear from some of you that have Maxpoint and whether you find that you use it and like it. Then I can decide which version to purchase.

I have Maxpoint and used it for about two years. When I got my AP 1200 I didn't need it any more because the pointing was dead on(at my focal length). It worked well and was easy to use however. If I every go to a longer focal length I'll probably add it back into my software stew.
