I have a machine where several of my installed applications are getting way behind. It is not a mission critical server, but I need it to be stable (I have all fairly old well supported hardware, nothing special). Since updating and rebuilding all the ports is pretty much mandatory for the upgrade to 7.x and I plan to take that path soon, would most people consider 7.1RC2 stable enough for a move now? The machine is a home server that provides several services on my network, but is rarely under any load. I know this is rather vague question, so I will be happy with any vague answers; just positive or negative experiences with well supported hardware (old Dell 8250 P4 3.0GHz 1.5GB 1066 RAMBUS). Thanks in advance, Tom Veldhouse
