PAUP* vs TNT

I need to buy some phylogenetic analysis software to conduct analyses of morphological characters in Windows. At the moment, I think the main contenders are the old standard of PAUP* and the more recent TNT. Does anyone have any advice on how these two compare? Also, does anyone have a couple of good references for me to learn what all the analysis parameters (branch-addition, branch-swapping parameters, etc.) actually mean?

    I have only used PAUP.I found the FAQ pretty good at sorting things out (though I only used DNA and AA sequences).
