I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed, where we get the latest and greatest
willy-nilly unless we affirmatively "pin" applications. Aside from the
tab names oddity and the fact that the summary bar for mutual fund
accounts treats everything as being 1 dollar per share, I've found no
show-stoppers with version 3.

Of course, being out here on the bleeding edge, I have an elaborate
backup scheme, paper records, and a selection of other distros (even
the two expensive OSs that shall not be named) on this and other
computers to fall back on if things blow up.  

So far, no problems.  I like the new look, and things seem a bit faster
too.
