been playing with that, looks actually really good and the potential to
expand it is better.

i like the tighter integration with Drupal than Civi, which seems a bit
of a bolt on floating on top at a first look.

am going to play with crm_core and commerce running together and how
well (or not) that integrate...

yes indeed, I'm in two minds about Magento myself, we can afford in this
project to pay for the premium version, but I'm not convinced about the
programming interface.  This'll take a couple of weeks of research to
establish the Drupal vs Magento pros and cons methinks.

anyone got any more experience, any more of an opinion on that?

Cheers,

Mike.
