Sorry for late response, things are getting hectic here (another solo bailing, can't afford to retire yet, nor really want to, but can't keep up all the spinning plates of running my own office - as an alternative, get to learn Epic, oh goody!).

I was debating that question, Bert, and may just do that. However, with the rollover from one owner to another to another, I was worried about losing the ability to move AC to a new computer at my convenience, especially without incurring significant additional costs.

As I understood (or perhaps misunderstood), for older versions (when Jon still owned company) one could opt out of support, electronic prescribing, etc and maintain a low-cost/no cost setup. With the older versions (not sure which was the last that worked that way), one could also move everything to a new computer whenever needed, without having to jump through current hoops, and even have it set up on more than one computer at a time (a nightmare if still adding info, but perhaps convenient for just accessing information). One hassle with a rollback like that is perhaps losing some of the (few) useful meaningful use info/summaries (easy-to-find summaries of last screenings such as last mammo, DEXA, immunizations, etc).

Any thoughts greatly appreciated. And, Bert, a special thank you for all your useful and interesting input on this forum.
