I only want the latest algorithm. Period.
This thing is amazing. When a turd of a firmware is released, it gets fixed within a half a day. Always. Cliff has pride, but he is also humble enough to investigate a bug report, and rectify it with all possible dispatch.
Since the goal is "greater realism", wouldn't you want the latest? There are so many tools in the box to shape tone, that you can probably coax a "legacy tone" out of the latest firmware too. And if you can't, it's for good reason - the latest firmware is "more real."
I want the "better wah" and other new improvements. I want them more than I want to be able to roll back to something earlier. Please, don't make me call a Wah-mbulance over this and cause a Scene (Scene 9 - you don't want to go there, dude)
I think it is really noble to hold 99% of your customer base that own the Mark I / II, because of a handful of people. If those handful were top industry endorsees, they would have an XL anyways. Those people have 5.03 now, and they should just go ahead and keep it! But please kill the legacy options so the rest of us can move ahead with the rest of the team.
Anyone that is on tour and needs the legacy modeling choices can remain in 5.03, and can wait until they come home to update firmware, so they have time to tweak their tones again. IMHO.

EDIT: I thought this thing was the Bee's Knees when I received it new, 4-1/2 years ago, loaded with firmware 4. I think even more so now, with Quantum 5.03
