Can you Install ObjectDock Plus over Free ObjectDock? How to save settings?

from Stardock Forums
I have been using the free ObjectDock for a while now.  I am thinking of upgrading to ObjectDock Plus.  I am running Windows Vista 64 bit with no problems except a few things not able to run in the bar, ie Windows Mobile Device Center doesn't work.  But everything else that I need seems to work though.  My question is if I purchase ObjectDock Plus, do I have to uninstall the free version of ObjectDock first, or can I install over it.  I really don't want to lose my setting and Icons that I already have.  Is there a way to save my settings from the free ObjectDock and import into ObjectDock Plus?

Is it worth getting the Plus version?  I sort of made Vista into Leopard.  I own WindowBlinds also.  I love the dock idea.  My wife has an iMac, the new one.  First time I really used a Mac and loved the ease of it compared to Vista.  So I just converted Vista into a Mac, but I still use a lot of programs that I can't use on a Mac.  Maybe my next computer will be a Mac.  But I have a few years until then.

Let me know what you think?

Is ObjectDock Plus worth the money, especially on Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit? What extra's that work on Vista 64 bit do you get from free version. I already have both Impulse and Stardock central installed, so I could get the newest version.

Is it worth 20 bucks, or should I stick with the free version. Also, what is the upgrade policy. They are at 1.9 now. Say in a month or two they go to 2.0. Do I have to pay all over again or is it free upgrade. Anyone know?

Don't forget that you can have the system tray icons on your dock too, which eliminates the need for the Windows taskbar ;)
