As with everything in life, you generally change because of a desire
rather than a need. Personally, I find RedHat 7.3 out-of-date, but my
preferences are most certainly not shared by everyone.
As one example, the Visor sync would probably not be a problem with a
newer distro. I also much prefer KDE3 to the KDE2 that comes with
RedHat 7.3.
Note that the Debian guys don't "upgrade" in the same sense. Thus,
their post-install experience is usually much nicer in this respect.
Practically every distribution has an "upgrade" option, but I tend not
to trust them. I think a good middle ground was mentioned here
earlier: only upgrade between minor version numbers.
