It'll be fine. In any software, avoid the .0 releases. That's where the nasty and subtle bugs will first be discovered. Take a look at the mailing list archives about problems with 3.0 if you want some nice scare stories. Everything points to 4.0 coming out this quarter. I'll be installing on systems I don't care about, and my laptop. ==ml To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
