Can't speak for Linux, but every Mac OS upgrade has been a real improvement. OS 8->9 wasn't that disruptive, but 9->X sure rendered a lot of stuff obsolete, which was a pain for a while but ultimately very much worth it. But it sounds like the disruption for Vista just isn't worth it. I've read a lot of reviews, plus the complaints here, and it sounds like a gain for IP protection, but not users.
