Yes, that's certainly true, but i am stuck with donated machines which 
may not be able to run the latest and greatest.  If RH 9 can run on a 
machine with 32 MB RAM, and a 1 G hard drive, then you bet i would 
install it right now.  I know RH 7.3 can't do that.

There is an assumption that getting a current machine is no big deal.  
That's not true in all times and places.  Some of us have certain 
limitations, at least for a while.
