 We are on exactly the same page !

 I may go a step further, in that I do not update
 any machine, unless or until there is a compelling need.
 Something has failed, or there is a new feature that
 simply can't be had otherwise, AND is a desired feature.

 More often than not, I simply upgrade the whole system,
 hardware and all, and do a bare metal install with the latest
 stable release.

 ( except for KDE, where 3.x works far better for me than 4.x )
