All true and I knew (mostly) what I was getting into ... but ... I've been using them
daily for over a month and have had *very* few issues. And by "using them", I
mean that this is my workstation at work. I do admit that I don't update daily.
Printer driver issues, some goofiness with HALD, and now this have been the only issues,
really, oh, and some screen rendering problems. Otherwise, it's pretty solid.
Yes, this is intended as a compliment! :-)
I wouldn't have expected too many changes to have been going on since 3.5.13 was
released on the 1st of the month. Once the heavy development begins is usually when the
issues with the nightly builds begin.
