RE: Is 6.1 'beta' and 7.1 the more stable release?

Thank you, Doctor. I have tried to use this argument/comparison with my
bosses (owners) who both have Win7 but can't seem to grasp that their
business critical system is still at V5R1 and, I'm guessing, Power3 (Model
250). The lights are on, but nobody's home.

I've seen at least 2 ibm clients buy Power7 hard, do all the hard work
to migrate from v5r4 and not go directly to v7r1 (and neither had
software issues with v7r1, all inhouse, all converted)... The excuse
from the "software specialist"? "v6r1 is more stable, v7 is too
new"....
I cant believe the amount of FUD that guy spews
