Just to offer my point of view on David's changes.

I've never even seen the Lucas Special Editions, let alone the DVD versions. I never wanted to, because I just knew I wouldn't like them.

The Darth Editous version is one I would like to see, because it sounds like all the Lucas stuff I would find objectionable has been removed. For the "wow" factor as well, everything is in Lowry-cleaned-up DVD quality, there are new CGI effects (remember I've never seen the SE) and the soundtrack is in Dolby Digital 5.1 (I assume?).

For personal nostalgic viewing I would still chose my own Laserdisc copy, but for demo purposes or for watching with others, I imagine I'd chose this version.
