I have a general question about these seeds. I am only a small

I don't have the luxury of a second "test" machine to install pre-
release seeds on. I almost exclusively only use final releases,
even though I would often *like* to do testing on pre-releases
(especially seeds of the OS itself) to make sure that my software
still works on it.
What stance do other developers in my situation adopt with respect
to trying out these new Xcode builds? I know that the use of pre-
release software is always a "use at your own risk" affair, but I'm
wondering how many decide to actually run that risk on their
production machines. Thoughts?
I always run the latest bleeding edge versions of Xcode. I wouldn't
worry too much about potential problems with using a beta version of
Xcode - you can always move back to a stable release if you want /
need to. Just run the uninstaller script in between to ensure that
you start out from a clean slate. It's probably also prudent to make
sure that you do a clean build when you change Xcode versions.
Trying out different versions of the OS itself involves more work.
Your best bet is probably to simply use a separate partition / FW HD
for that purpose.
