Yep - nothing serious going on with me at moment so I went ahead and installed. Working good so far but only trying out small sessions. I'm on HD2 G5 2.5 w/3GB Ram. Will keep you posted if any problems arise.

I’d do it, but I’m going to be stuck here for the next week.

Anyway, I just updated here with my HD2 Accel running on a Dual 2.5GHz G5 and everything seems fine.

Because even if Digi qualifies an update, it doesn't mean it will work on my computer the way it worked for them. I have a backup drive to boot from in case there are any problems so I'm not worried. If I find any problems now and report them, it just means they will be aware of them and can fix them that much sooner. I certainly don't recommend updating right away for everyone, but I am very comfortable with it and I almost always download all the updates the day they are released.

In hopes the update will make for a more stable system.

Having a couple of systems I usually install updates in a secondary computer to check it out before installing in my main unit.
