How often do you keep up with Versiontracker.com and Apple.com updates?

I try to keep up with it everyday (Versiontracker at least is daily),
upkeep is a necessary chore.
Now I know, and knowing is half the battle!

I recently signed up for the versiontracker daily updates, and it's definitely a case of too much information. I usually keep an eye on hot topics in the Software forum and such.

My days consist of updating my software, I'm subscribed to every software newsletter you can think of, I have many VT.com Pro accnts, I have update radar (paid 3 licenses).

So I basically sit here, refreshing VT and Macupdate all day, and when something new appears on the list, I click download (I've bought a Dual T3 line so i can really dl fast) and I'm always the first one to download.

How anal am I? I'm very anal.

sometimes I feel like I spend way too much time upgrading and maintaining my computer rather than doing something productive with the machine, like learning photoshop.
