    You can find the major differences between the two here http://drupal.org/drupal-5.0

    But the main thing I have noticed is that Drupal 5.0 has a much easier Installation process then the old 4.7.6

    Besides the 4.7.6 is a security release.
    I would defintly suggest you go for Drupal 5.0

    Care to tell us why?

    As to the OP's original question. 5.0 also looks better than 4.7.

    Less template support and less add-in module support. You might want to stick with 4.7 for now.
