Concerning updates: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. On Usenet I always ask the question WHY people do a certain update (e.g. aa KDE update) and in about 90% that an answer is given, people don't know. Also most people do not know that when they do an update, that YOU won't update that package.
Occasionally I think: "It can only become better" (reason for upgrade)
e.g. update from Firefox 1.0 to 1.5. Day that a security leak is found in 6 months. My 1.0 will be patched by SUSE (Thanks guys and girls) most peoples 1.5 won't be patched, because they asume YOU will do it for them.
Firefox 1.5 is expected to patch itself. [...] Regards, Ulrich
