Cover or Leave Paneling

I am in the process of purchasing a duplex rental that is currently covered with paneling in every room.  Is it more advisable to remove the paneling, paint it or skim coat it with drywall compound?  The paneling has already been painted at least once and is in good condition.

In 2080, people will be writing posts / showing pics on BP about how elated they were to remove drywall and find unpainted paneling. LOL.
