Wolfgang, Once upon a time it was shown that the most attacked
versions of software tended to be one revision off of current,
leading to the strategy that you should keep up or stay well behind
(like a herd animal either staying in the center of the herd or
hiding in the bush but *never* being in the trailing edge of the
herd as that's where the predators were).  Coupled with the observed
propensity of so many software houses to have upgrades that add
all-but-gratuitous features, it seemed almost preferable to take
the hide-in-the-bush strategy if you had any technical skill at
all.

Expand on this in whatever direction you can, if you like.
