I got my K3s (#10323) back in October, 2015, and got my KPA 500 (#2664) a few months later (I have the full K line including the KAT 500).

When I built them, I promptly updated the firmware, and haven't done it since.  I checked and my K3s has Firmware Version 5.35 and the KPA 500 has Version 1.38.

Am I missing anything by not having updated?  I haven't done it because I am maddened by the constant crazy updates forced on us by Microsoft, Firefox, etc. (when I turn on my computer, I want to USE it - when I turn it off, I want it to shut off, rather than update for another 10-15 minutes), and just hate updates in principal.  However, I noticed that the interface between the K3s and my Ham Radio Deluxe software is getting a little glitchy (sometimes, the software insists the radio isn't there, even though I've checked the cable), and I wonder if that is a function of needing to update things (and yes, I should probably update the Ham Radio Deluxe software).  This glitchyness is the only problem I experience, and otherwise, my setup works great.

Thoughts?  What am I missing?
