Default Best version to work with

I have recently installed version 4.2.0 as I thought it was the latest version, but have just read that it may be unstable, could someone let me know the best version for me to work with, as I want to change the look and design and have already hit a stumbling block on this version, I dont really want to un install and have to redo everything so could do with some advice before making this decision.

Version 4.2.0 and 4.1.11 quite different (for the integration of skin). So then perform a full transition from 4.1.11 to 4.2.0 (already heavily modified design in 4.1.11 and additional modules) - will be very difficult.

Maybe it makes sense to start with 4.2.0?

If you start with 4.2, not only will you not have any add-ons or skins to choose from, but you'll be constantly applying updates/patches for the next 3 months. Just look at all the problems people are having in the bugs forum. Once again, a buggy release even though we were assured it wouldn't happen this time.
