IPS - QC - VQC ??? Which one for you?

When speaking with various people, no-one seems to like the IPS on the new control.
I dont like not having QC in edit, I dont like the IPS for machining day to day - but just to quickly 'bang a hole' in something as a one off i can see its benefits.

I do strongly prefer the IPS probing to anything else i.e. VQC

Anyone else got an opinion they'd like to share?

We use the IPS for all our programming needs, most of our parts are pretty simple, stuff like profiles, facing, threading, drill and tapping. Once I have the print I can bang the program out in under 15 minutes. But this is on the lathe, for our mill we use a cam program.
