Sure older lenses that are no longer made and are used are cheaper, but does that make them better? If they were really better they would still be made and sold today. AF-S is a better technology than screw drive. But that is not really the issue here. There are many people that the D5000 will be a better choice, and there are some that a D90 is not even close to good enough.
