Make sure you have used LW before, use LW Basic in the meantime.
That way you will know of any problems it might have. For example, several people are downgrading back to LW 4 due to LW 5 causing problems or just because of its changes .. such as less tools than LW 4. LW 5 dropped many tools & has not re-introduced them back yet, most tools probably not until later in year.
