Don't "upgrade" (yet)

I learned a long time ago to let others be the "public" beta testers when products are released.... It doesn't always pay to have the latest and greatest.

if everyone had that opinion, then there would be no point in beta testing, now would there?

Yah, so? That's one of those silly "if" questions that provides zero useful information.

If everybody stuck with typewriters, we wouldn't have word processors, would we?

If everyone used their brain, we would have these pointless arguments

And then maybe the software companies would consider making a better product and more testing internally vs releasing a product not when sales/marketing say "ship it".

I Run Microsoft XP SP2 with SAV and ZA 4.0.146.029. I don't believe in putting all my eggs in one basket. XP SP2 is worthless as long as you run a firewall and Anti-Virus. We all know trusting any Microsoft product is putting the Internet in jeopardy. My AV calls in for an update every night and I trust ZA to block out the bad guys. I stopped upgrade ZA when my shut downs hung on newer ZA builds. Don't trust all in ones and don't patronize only one software manufacturer.
