I'm happy that Apple seems to be focusing on stability and bug fixes. I'm all for new features, but let's focus for a while on tightening up the screws.
...so if one orders a $5~$10k~$15k new iMac Pro, are they forced to use an OS that is still 'tightening up the screws' ie. clearly in beta testing...? Is that reasonable ? Should customers and licensees expect to at least be able to install and have Applecare support for an OS of not three months hence...? Let the (pyre like) flames begin...
After rushing to upgrade to High Sierra (mostly to try out the new AFS on my new MacBook Pro) I will now wait at least 6 months before upgrading to any major OS release. Lesson learned.
