And I do duly appreciate the people who *do* get the latest stuff as fast as it's available, it's just that those who have a mission-critical computer should not be in that crowd, and IIRC, there were comments in this thread indicating that someone(s) might be in both groups -- soon I may have a down-capacity computer to try new stuff on without crippling my ability to earn a living, but 2 computers is the only way anyone should be in both groups ( always-newest & have-critical ).
