If your looking for "scripting improvements" v12 brought a greatly improved Execute SQL function. Also included in v 13 of course. Container fields also got a great overhaul that makes the jump out of 10 worthwhile. 
Hey you're only 70, New version every year means you still have several to contend with. :)

I have been running FileMaker Pro 10 on the old computer, and had thought to upgrade from v10 to v12 on the new one. Now along comes v13 and it having me wondering what will be my best option.

I mainly use the program to maintain database files for a middle school academic league and use a lot of scripts (both FM and AppleScript) to handle things. While I do put files on the Internet, it is handled with scripts and using Interarchy to handle the up and downloads
