The frequently discussed automatic updating system didn't do this on it's own, so I had to give it a little manual help, and then wait for quite a while as it did its thing, but it did do it, and the old command-line method still works! So it is now once again right up to date. They've improved their booting processes and modernized those in this latest release, so if you hadn't formatted its partition with the ZFS format, you would need to save your files, and do a clean install of it from disk, after downloading its latest ISO. That's because there's been changes in the main kernel which now is no longer fully compatible with older versions. So if you have trouble, that's probably why. But for a free operating system, this is still a great setup, and it works fine. It runs the same kinds of programs as Microsoft or Apple products, including a free Office suite, if you need one. Try LibreOffice. It's the successor to OpenOffice, and even better.
