The problem is that newer versions tend to break everything, which
makes for a sucky end user experience. I've been doing this since Red
Hat 3.0.3 and up, so it's not as if this is all new to me. While there
has been the odd release with problems over the years, it's largely
been a trouble free existence. But that has definitely changed in the
last few years. I'm wary of upgrading now, because too much breaks,
and no one cares enough to fix it.
As I said, that is definitely not my experience. Upgrades rarely break
anything major and problems with new releases tend to get fixed quickly.
