Only upgrade to the latest version half way through a cycle. Ie, in January and July. That way, you can see all the problems that everyone else has had and make an informed decision on whether to upgrade. This month would be the time that I should be upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10. I'm not going to though because I've seen all the problems that other people have had with it. I'm hoping I can upgrade to 12.04 in July as I've heared they concentrating on reducing power usage, so hopefully it will make my laptop last longer. I could ugprade with everybody else in April, but then I'll be taking the same risks as everyone else. It's only a three month wait.
