[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1811482, member: 204485"] I have to say I am of the same opinion as MacInWin. There is one other thing I neglected to add to my post when I mentioned the security advantages of incremental updates. As of October 31st 2018 El Capitan will no longer receive security updates, meaning it is now an unsupported OS. This article explains the implications of this as well as illustrating some of the other previously mentioned drawbacks that will inevitably occur with older operating systems. [url=http://jimmymacsupport.com/no-more-security-patches-for-os-x-el-capitan-time-to-upgrade/]No more security patches for OS X El Capitan, time to upgrade – JimmyMac[/url] Considering the amount of malware out there and the amount of online banking I do, this alone would be reason enough for me to upgrade. As for "stable" by my definition we have never had stable, no, we don't have stable yet and it's unlikely we ever will. And I might add this is not limited to the Apple Platform.
