I have been gradually converting all my projects to 2.7 but keeping
complete backups of the 2.6 stacks just in case. Chipp's plugin makes
it easy to go back if you have a major problem, but I found that 2.7
solved various problems I was having with standalones crashing on
startup or not loading the speech external, so I'm very happy with it.

Cheers,
