People do upgrade hardware & software just to get stability. Look at the unbelievable number of patches that people download for games like Quake2. As far as I know, there were no new features in any of the patches, but right after it was released it seemed like there was a new patch every week. If there is ANY software that people _want_ badly enough, they will download any number of patches and spend alot of money in hardware if needed to make it work.
