So, I'm dating myself by at least a decade, just by asking this question. But even if it makes me a certified fossil, I LOVE my Gypsy and what I can create with it, and don't know how I'd ever use my Cricut E without it. With all the $ invested in carts, and the convenience of my current workspace set up combined with the Gypsy, I have no interest in joining the 21st Century. LOL (Plus, I just bought a Workbox last year, no more major investments on the horizon for a while!) However, I bought a great cart-the chalkboard font one, on sale. And, of course, it's new since I last updated the Gypsy, so in order to link it, I have to update it again. I remember some horror stories about Gypsies never working again after an update (and this was a while ago as it is), and heaven knows there's No Customer Service for Old Gypsies. So, I'm skeert. Hold my hand and tell me it will be okay. Or, tell me to return the chalkboard font, grab the Gypsy and run away from the computer like a madwoman. Either way. TIA!!!

I would be askeert too. I've never been a big user of the Gypsy, (always used the Cricut Design Studio on the computer) but did update mine a few months ago. Sadly my Expression won't communicate with either gypsy or computer anymore.
How about not updating the Gypsy but using the new cartridge from on the online Craft Room? It won't help to use the Design Studio anymore as they quit adding updates quite a long time ago.

I'm afeered too. I haven't updated my Gypsy in a long long time, nor do I want to. I'm afraid there will be a glitch and poof! no more gypsy. afeered I will remain.

Oh boy... we are in great shape. LOL
I do most of my design "on the run" and not near my computer, or even my scrap space. That's why I'm so drug-addicted to this thing!

I am in the same boat. I got the edge to edge cartridge which I love but cannot sync it to my gypsy. So I use it the old-fashioned way. The online thing is great if Wi-Fi is available where you live, but I'm in the country and have to use satellite for my Internet connection. It is often unreliable. And I really get no reception in the basement where my craft room is. Besides, I really like my gypsy. I know that I will cry when it dies.
And I have also a voided updating my gypsy. I'm just afraid it will die if I do it
