I also do not understand this crying here. There are currently 7.4, 8.3 and 9.0 as a RELEASE out. Nobody will stop a user to install the current release candidate for 9.1 or even the 10.0. I would not bother to think a second but take what ever is out there which seems to fit to my hardware and install it. If nothing works, I would have a try with 10.
