Default Replacement windows or new storms and screens?

We are giving consideration to replacing our 40 year old wood windows.
They are drafty and bugs get in through the screens.

We are planning on selling the house in 3 to 7 years.

Here is what we see our options as being:

Replacing with vinyl
Replacing with wood
Replacing JUST the storms and screens
Not replacing anything at all

Are there any other options that I am missing?

HEEELP!!!

Replace with vinyl replacements of the E squared energy star efficient
type. Cheaper cost and larger return. Also reduces your heating/air
conditioning costs.



I had to buy vinyl replacements to get the $1500 fed tax credit. They're
cheaper too. They look really nice too.
