I'm pondering whether Map3D is worth $2000 ... love to hear some comments as
this would be a BIG investment for me.

1. First autodesk says they're dropping the Map series and yet the new
product still has the name Map in it... is Map3D a newer version of AutoCad
Map or isn't it?
2. the upgrade info talks about upgrading from map2000i, while my version
is map2000 release 4 with no "i" anywhere to be seen ... what's the
difference between map2000 and map2000i
...does this screw me out of the upgrade path?

As of last year's January publicly announced retirement date, your product
falls into what is known as an Autodesk Legacy Product:
