Would you be willing to say what you think the
biggest changes are?
The HDR features are the biggest change.
But there’s a difference between my view of changes (code) and your view (workflow) 😉
For most users things like Smart Objects, Smart Sharpen, Reduce Noise, menu customization, multi-layer selection, Vanishing Point, Warping, etc. are going to make the biggest impact on their workflow.
Which ones make the biggest impact to you will very much depend on the work you do. And frequently some of the small things make the big changes in your work.

I agree. To some, even small changes benefit their personal workflow. S&H in CS was worth the price of the upgrade alone – for me.
The only upgrade that I did not choose to get was 5.5, as I wasn’t doing much Web work then and already had Fireworks for those few jobs. To me, each upgrade has been worth MORE than the price of the new program. Only problem that I had was about 4, when I had a big job on the machine, and kept working away on 3.x, because I had a deadline and knew that ver better. Boy, when I finally opened up 4 (it had already become 4.01 by then), I realized how much extra work I had just done! However, because most of what I do has a tight schedule, I always keep the old "standby" up and running, until I get the feel for the new one. I still keep 4.01 on one particular machine because of the way it handles one client’s needs for special spot-color processing. I only use it about twice per year, but for those two times, the HDD space that it occupies is well worth it.
Let me just say thanks to Adobe and the PS team. You make my life so much easier, and more profitable.
