All of that is true.  I suppose there are cases where there's no great 
benefit to updating, but I have a hard time seeing that logic.  There 
are *LOTS* of bug fixes, and *LOTS* of new features in 3.20 vs 3.19.  
Why someone wouldn't want those is hard to understand.

For Daryl - many people have upgraded without issues.  I have to think 
it is some procedural error on your part.  I can't remember if you've 
posted the details on what happened to your upgrade attempts, but if you 
would give those details I'm sure we could get things resolved so you 
can complete the upgrade.
