I've done 8 to 10 (by way of 9) on ten different machines in the year preceding the 11 release and I didn't find it very difficult or time-consuming, though admittedly these were servers and those tend to be less complex than desktops. I'm not sure that going from 10 to 11 would add that much extra work; it really depends on what packages are installed and how carefully their configuration changes must be examined. But yeah I wouldn't recommend it without that qualification, and it may well be the case that a clean install is simpler and faster at that point. A lot of people prefer that even for version x to version x+1 changes. Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
