If you want reliability, then you need to do your own testing on your =20=

own hardware on your own application prior to replacing your working =20
version with the new one.  Never rely on anyone else saying "Yeah, it =20=

will work".  It will come back and bite you where you don't want to =20
be bit.

The other side of this is "don't replace what works" and just leave =20
things as they are.
