Price policy apart, In a business where client are looking for stability and assurance that their paying time in studio will not be fraught with loss of time on crashes, one is best not to be on the breaking edge of technology if their system is rock solid. We may all be vexed by the Pricing policy Avid and other companies have embraced, the sole responsibility of compatibility and stability remains on you (the professional who are offering their services for money). Jumping on every OS release is the best way to make sure that you will not be able to offer a stable system to your clients.
