AH has been changing non stop since I first started the first beta back in 99.
It is very simple people, adapt or leave.
AH is going to move forward, and it will continue to move forward. So the choice is up to you, keep up or get left behind.
Now, no one said it was easy.
(You want to talk about hard, take a look at a trainers life, he gets new release same time as you and has aprox one hour to master it so he can help others with it.)
But the things in life that are worth having are seldom easy.
Call me a Fanboi (its in my job description, go ahead, doesn't hurt me at all)
Call me a progressive (much rather be moving forward than backward)
In 10 years I can count the number of times AH has actually gone "back" on one hand with fingers left over.
And those only happened as a result of unanticipated technical issues, as soon as those were resolved AH went forward again.
