   Have you actually _tried_?

Actually I am running GNU Emacs 23.x for months now and before
that, I was using GNU Emacs 22.x so yes.

   Then you are not seriously using it.

What's your problem exactly ? I am using GNU Emacs for all sort
of stuff going from source code editing to listening to music so
I am a hard long-term GNU Emacs user and I *do really* use it
very seriously. And yes, I keep on saying that GNU Emacs 21.x is
really stable and I never encountered any troubles. 

If I was not coding modes/packages for GNU Emacs, I would have
probably sticked to GNU Emacs 21.x, for sure.
