I think you guys are overly cautious. Tinkering around is fun -- and quite frankly, user ROMs are quite often better than official ones. Especially since big companies like Motorola, HTC, etc never address the small issues. User ROMs are specifically tweaked for speed and added functionality. On my Streak, for example, I could enjoy Flash two months early.

Besides, you can always go back. So I don't see the downside. After all, there is no Steve telling you to "keep your paws of the device I have leased to you!". Anyway, just sharing the information. The rest is up to you. If the link is broken you can still go to xda-developers, Modaco, etc to get the goodies.
