Definitely choose the latest version IPS version 7.0 as it has new features and bug fixes that were found in the earlier version.

But BTW, if you buy IPS, you will not buy based on the version because the software comes with it by default, and you can upgrade and downgrade it accordingly if you want to.

There are actually many different models of IPS, and here is the list:

- IPS 4200 series

- AIP module on ASA firewalls

- IOS IPS

- IDSM2 on 6500 series switch

- AIM or NME IPS on routers

They all can run either version 6.2 or 7.0, or any other version supported in that platform.
