Hmmm... I don't know what to suggest. If you hadn't said "production
server" I would have said "yes, definitely upgrade". Truth is that the
chances of something going wrong are small. The upgrade from Breezy to
Dapper _is_ supported.
You can feel safe upgrading your desktop and laptop. I would recommend
upgrading those first to gain confidence with the upgrade process. I
don't know what to say about the production server. Is it possible for
you to setup a second, temporary, server that you can use while you
upgrade the standard server? Just to serve as a fall-back position in
case anything goes wrong? (probably won't).
