Yes, but see Mark's response for reasons why you might not have it
yet.

Two points:

1. From my personal experience, I have seen no problems with it.

2. Whenever *anything* new comes out, you see reports of problems with
it. Contrast the number of reports of problems you've seen with the
number of people who have installed it. Problems have been very few.

I recommend installing it, but it's always prudent to be sure your
backed up when you take a big step. No matter how unlikely, something
can always go wrong.
