Should I wait for 17.1

The reason I am asking is after the snafu I had I am back to 16.0 and some of my files tell me the were created in a newer version and some things will not work. I am thinking of upgrading but would like some of the experts opinions, I have to admit I am a rank amateur and want to be sure I get the most for my buck!!!!

Well Gypsyjoe, I can say for sure I'm not "old pro"... just old... but to give you some piece of mind, (maybe) I have been using 17 from day 1 release and aside from a couple of minor bugs that have been worked-around I have to say it's pretty solid.

Since our quarantine, I can honestly say I'm using it heavily for at least 10 hours a day. (17 open, Video app open, Chrome open - with only 8 megs of ram) Most of the time not even a reboot for 3 or 4 hours.

So, again, I'm finding it solid, dependable and (here it is - wait for it) 'trustworthy'. Your call. But I would say you can feel comfortable.
