... maybe it only seems rock steady, underneath it is anguished, fighting
for balance, groaning silently in pain, bravely coping, always just loyally
succeeding. 8.6 is a free upgrade and may be something you owe your machine
out of compassion! Reminds me of the psychiatrist who insists that someone
is deeply disturbed in spite of every ordinary indication of happiness...
:)

Seriously, I think it might depend on what programs you use, how intense you
push it and so on. The literature is out there about the "issues" 8.6
addresses... But best of luck to you.
