I've converted to Castles & Crusades by Troll Lord Games.
Back to basics: real roleplaying with an updated d20 mechanic and a simple resolution system for almost everything [ SIEGE Engine (tm) ].
It allows me to convert and or use 0E, 1E, 2E, & 3E stuff and play it so your old books are still good
You don't need minatures or maps and the having fun in the game comes first - the rules are not at all set in stone.
Rules lawyers and munchkins need not apply.
Rules light and very fast to play.

I'm teaching the 8 years old to do something besides sit in front of the TV this weekend, in fact.

There alre a lot of free choices out there too, Basic Famtasy Role Playing, OSIRC, Labrinth Lords...
Why stick with WoTC with there are better, less expensive alternatives?

Just my opinion.
