I don't think that would be fare. I upgraded from 2.2.7 to 3.0-release maybe about 2 weeks after it was released for many resons. 1. IDE cd-burner and tape drive support (I have an IDE tape Drive on the desktop) 2. SCSI System change 3. better mouse sound, pnp, support,(desktop) 4. Async IO 5. Lern more about the development as well as develop my own projects etc. This wouls have not been possible if I couldn't get the newest release version.
