I *always* wait for at least the first bug-fix update to a new OS
rather than installing it the moment it becomes available. If you

Godfrey, that is interesting.
Are you doing that as your job responsibilities (are you still working
at Apple?), or as a part of a special group as a side gig?
As for beta versions (when pronounced as in Greek (and possibly

With a 10-15 Mbit/s home cable (which is standard here, unless
you get the absolute minimum, which is 1 Mbit/s which they no longer
