Windows 7 Updates November 2012...
I really would like to know (bottom line) if these updates are too problematic at this time? I have read countless articles about failures and newly created problems after installing these updates. Would it be best to wait and find out what the underlying problems really are?

They are no more problematic than any other update - the problems mostly occur becuase the system was previously in a porrly-maintained state.
