> What is downside of staying with FC and only occasionally updating?

In my experience the updates to a new version are too frequent for
servers, which take to much effort to reinstall that often.  So I run
CentOS on my servers, but FC on workstations, which are easier to
reinstall.

I would also argue that if the servers are of critical importance, FC is
to risky as inevitably its cutting edge means more chance of failure,
and a more stable platform is safer.

Q:  Why is top-posting a bad thing?
