Phil, thanks for sharing the article by Ars Technica.  I found this section
interesting and informative:

________________________________

I think the vast majority of people who decide to upgrade on day one will be
essentially fine. But if it’s at all possible for you, you should wait for
version 10.13.1 or 10.13.2 to update to High Sierra.

Aside from the fact that you’ll keep getting security (and Safari) updates in
Sierra, I make this recommendation for three reasons:

  *   The number of user-facing improvements is small. The Photos app gets the
biggest overhaul, and it’s a good one, but otherwise you’re not missing very
much.
  *   Some things just aren’t done. APFS won’t work on Fusion Drives. External
graphics support is usable but not finished. iMessage on iCloud isn’t here yet.
The new Metal-powered windowserver is still intermittently buggy.
  *   Even with fully finished, bug-free features, Apple has been clear that
these are foundational updates. Meaning: cool, user-visible stuff will be built
on top of them in future releases, but that stuff isn’t here yet.
