On the other hand, I have a machine I don't want to disturb still running
6.3,
and it's doing just fine. SuSE have just produced the 2.2.19 kernel for it,
and updated rpms continue to be released. So it's quite supported enough
to carry on with. Prior to the new kernel, I hadn't booted it for nine
months,
and with KDE running on it continuously all that time I never noticed one
jot
of performance degradation. So there's probably no need to worry too much
about your 7.0 being unusable for a year or two. It's a quality piece of
kit.
