You've gotten answers from very knowledgeable people--just to give a
practical example. I updated yesterday (after not having updated for a
few days) and X stopped working. 

I updated again tonight, and it's fine.  

So, if you asked me yesterday, I would have said no (on my
hardware--judging from the forums, it seemed to mostly hit onboard Intel
cards), but today, I'd say, sure, why not? 


I think Rahul's advice was probably the best, though I admire 
Adam's temerity.

Buffy: Besides, it's kind of my job.
Spike: For now.
Buffy: What, you want me to stop working?
Spike: Well, let's see - do I want you to give up killing my friends?
Yeah, I've given it some thought.
