Maximizer 9 research for upgrade

Currently using Max 7 (not, repeat, not Enterprise), Pervasive engine, 8 users under Terminal Services with Windows 2000 Advanced Server. Email being handled by Outlook 2000, no Exchange server. Given the announcement about Max 7 no longer being supported after May 16 we're looking at upgrading to Max 9 (not, repeat, not Enterprise). If anyone can share information on the following areas I'd really appreciate it :

1) My perception is that Maximizer 9 is relatively stable (certainly compared to Maximizer 8); How true is that?

2) Has anyone upgraded from 7 directly to 9? What was it like? Any tips or tricks? What about for upgrades from 7-8 or 8-9?

3) Has anyone implemented Max 9 on Terminal Services? Any thoughts on how well this will work, or tips/tricks/traps?

4) Would Outlook 2000 continue to work or would we require Exchange server?

5) What Outlook and Windows server versions work best with Max 9?

6) How well does Max 9 run under Pervasive? Are there good reasons to upgrade to the SQL version for an implementation of our size?

7) What hidden upgrade costs have you run into?

8) What good resources are there out there for gaining solid background knowledge?

9) Anything else we should be aware of?

TIA - R.
