[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 107474, post: 1082541"] A friend of mine always wants the latest versions of software. I have the funny habit of prefering to wait. When I finished study I went to Africa and had the opportunity to see the Wildebeast migration. On one day they had to cross a river in the Serengeti. There were many crocodiles waiting for a byte. I somehow feel that early adopters (version XX.zero users) are the wildebeast crossing the river first so the herd (the rest of the pack) can cross the river safely (install the new feature release without bugs). :) I do this also with software, wait one or two days after downloading before installing. A security specialist once told me that waiting a day puts the vast majority of zero day malware on the blacklist of your AV (makes sence that o-day becomes 1-day after a day :) ) [/QUOTE]
