WOW! Good thing I've waited with the SCU install... Still not as stable as a house that Build... Let them first iron out the bugs and squash them!

It's been stable enough when I ran benchmarks on it., PC Mark 10 and Performamce test and prime95.
So far at least. All thre of these test calculations amound other things under very heavy loads.
Quite correct, RingTail! Quite correct. You should wait for the actual upgrade to the next official version.
I would never, never, never, install and use an Insider Build if I had only one computer. I may use it daily on the Insider Partition of my dual boot machine, but I won't use it for stuff I can't afford to lose!
Smart man!
Sometimes it is a smart move to pay attention to things like the advisory with the first Technical Preview back in 2014 not to use it on an only or production machine. I started with the TP on 2 separate, older, Dell desktops and outside of no drivers for the onboard Intel video [added ATI Radeon 2400 HD cards instead] everything with the newer Insider Preview has been working fine since.
And, stable or not, it is Insider....and no matter who says what, MS telemetry is there. It's there............
You're not perfectly safe on dual boot either. There was a bug a year or so ago in Insider build, that make booting problematic on the both system partitions...
I would run Insider on only production machine (if there was only one) but with Good backup solution Make system image restore and you're 15 minutes away of working system...
Only OS on this machine, stable enough so far, but all important data on detached externals just in case something happens that ends up crashing the entire thing, unlikely as it's been really stable since I installed it on 4/7, did rejoin Insider Release preview to get the darn update yesterday thinking I had to lol.
I game all day, listen to music and such, Music still stored on External though, not trusting even to put It on data drive yet
