VR 2.0 is a must buy if you intend to have deckers, IMHO. After years of
frustration with SRII and VR1's matrix systems (believe it or not, I found
the SR1 matrix rules better and easier to use than those in SRII or VR1)
I'm very impressed with VR 2.0. IMHO it's money well spent.

Now all I need to do is give it a try some time :)
