Advantages: Open new formats, there are many new 3d features.

Disadvantages: Changed the titles again, no benifits for upgrading to the light user

I have used AutoCAD 2008, 2009 and 2010 and they all vary slightly. 2009 was a big departure from the normal format of AutoCAD, with the inclusion of the menu ribbon and a slightly new interface (although most people ended up changing the view back to the 2008 equivalent!) I use AutoCAD's 2D functionality for work so I cannot comment on the 3D capabilities.
I received 2010 as part of a maintenance contract and I didn't actually NEED it. I loaded it up hoping that it would be a little easier to use, have a few more features and be as good as ever, if not better. The first thing that struck me was it took longer to load up, but it does have new features so it is understandable. For the functions that I use it for, all I can see is the menus have changed again, things are a little harder to find (for those who don't know all the short cuts).
I want to say that as a light, 2D user I have noticed a big change but I haven't. I'm sure that the heavy user or AutoCAD professional will have a different viewpoint, but as far as I'm concerned there is not much difference and I have actually reverted back to using the 2009 that I know and understand. It would be interesting to hear about other users views, especially on the 3D functionality that I don't use.

Summary: Apparently the best AutoCAD ever, but I can't see the change
