With openSUSE 11.4 coming out in a couple of days, when are you going to upgrade (if ever)?
Other
Installing it now 4th March
I will upgrade in my laptop when it will be announced. I will upgrade in my desktop in May and in my server in July.
I have to put myself as “other”, because a lot depends on whether it likes my Intel graphics or not. I’m optimistic, but I figure I’ll hold off and try it out after it’s officially released and whenever I get some time to try it out. Oh, and also when I get the laptop out of my kids’ hands!
Darn, didn’t think of the option “right now!”

After I see what bugs appear after release, I’ll decide.

Hi
Other, today 4th March. Installed on my Netbook from the Gnome LiveCD onto USB via SuSE ImageWriter… 
I will check it first(bugs,problems etc) in my laptop and then I will upgrade on my laptop and in my server.

I’m testing 11.4RC2 and found VirtualBox requires something not yet provided. Also my video card nVidia Corporation GT216 is not supported for 3D ATM. So I should wait till these issues are resolved.
In my laptop I have a stable 11.3 and a factory 11.3, in my desktop server I have stable 11.3 in 4 clients 11.3.
laptop factory > 11.4 in 7 days and test it
laptop stable > 11.4 in 1 or 2 months if factory works well, (I don’t like much KDE 4.6 monochrome icons and wait packman full of all the software)
desktop server and clients > 11.4 probably august 2011 during vaction 
I have more time to solve problems
The VirtualBox issue is resolved ignoring the wrong dependency from an older Python library.
As long as I do not see if there is anything “new” that I thouroughly need, I will not chanf level until my present is unsupported (or maybe even a bit later.
My systems are for users (inclusing myself) not for feature testers.
I kind of already have. On my lappy, I am running 11.3 that is probably more current than 11.4. I just installed RC2 on my daughters computer. My wife doesn’t understand why I want to upgrade hers. So I will probably hold off on hers.

I reformatted from 11.3 to 11.4 RC2 this past week. It is great, but I do not like Firefox beta 11 version 4.
Already have 11.4 RC2 on my laptop and desktop
I voted other. I usually wait a couple of weeks for any missed bug updates.
I have 11.3 installed on two laptops, one of which I use for work. Having just got everything working the way I require on the latter, I will read the bug reports, and accounts of others, before making the decision to upgrade. Maybe 11.5 (or whatever it gets called), will be released by that time…
