Never been one to always update systems (I generally stay with whatever came installed on the box) so I wonder, have there been so many buggy issues with previous system releases... systems prior to X? Every time I feel about ready to make the upgrade leap from 9, the list seems to fill up with discussions of problems, bugs and glitches users of X are having... and I really don't relish the thought of dealing with all the apparent issues, especially as my 'book works flawlessly with the original 9.1 installed. So is X unusual in this respect or have I just not been aware of similar problems when earlier system releases were made? Thanks, Don Ti 400
