Stop assuming. The simple answer is if you do not wait you are actually giving
up something, too. Those who wait until 1.2 is released have a better guarantee
they'll get what they are paying for. The promised version does not yet exist so
this is just like gambling in that you are taking *some* risk. Anyone who would
dismiss the risk on the surface is not being honest. The risk might be so low
that you individually can quickly dismiss it (for yourself). But many people
have been acting like the risk is absolutely zero and that is not the actual
truth. Those who ask would probably perfer the truth.

Waiting for a Rybka that can play endgames Regards,
