Because some later versions suck. Acrobat 6 rendered better onscreen 
(with the smooth lines setting) than Acrobat 7. On the other hand, 7 
is much faster. I have considered reverting to 6 to get better 
rendering, but the speed was really poor.

One basic principle is that newer software is simply not always 
better, and there are very good reasons for not upgrading.

Would you really say that Finale 2007, despite its wonderful new 
features, is a problem-free upgrade from 2006? Would you really say 
that people should definitely upgrade, given that 2006 works and in 
many respects 2007 doesn't?

Blaming it on the users is completely unfair. One has to live with 
these kinds of problems because there are perfect good and valid 
reasons for sticking with older software.
