I mean up until recently the fervor over OSX updates was ridiculous. I understand that people want to not be bothered by updates, but not updating is the reason that we have so many security holes.
The problem is that there is very little way to opt out of new/changed features.
People hold up on doing updates because they do not know what will break, and they need the computer to work 24/7 these days to stay in contact not just with work but also with family and friends.
Maybe not you or me personally, but MS has all too often pushed out updates that blow up on various computers.
And it is not only the major updates.
I have a laptop here, built around AMD parts.
when AMD introduced their Crimson driver set, they also discontinued support for the APU part of this laptop.
But still MS tries to be helpful and push out updated driver files, completely ignorant of the issue.
Thus at random intervals i can expect my external monitor to stop working until i go into the device manager and roll back the driver for the APU.
Edit: bah, scratch the part about "and me" up there. Thinking back i had to grab some tool at one point and actually blacklist a patch from MS because it would attempt to install, reboot, fail to come up a few times, then roll back, reboot, come back up, and then try to install again a day or two later.
Also, they are highly deceptive in how they push them on us.
Finally, my computer is important to me, and I can't afford to be their beta tester. My computer isn't a toy.
