To Apple's credit, the upgrade from OS X 10.5 to 10.6 was the least painful of 
any upgrade I've done, from Windows to Linux, because it is the only one where I 
did not have to resort to reformatting the disk and reinstalling everything. 
Microsoft's migration tools, even for their own software, never ever worked. 
Neither did Ubuntu's.

I'm still running XP because I don't want to spend 2 or 3 days finding the 
install disks for my programs and reinstalling everything.

On the other hand, the configuration screen for the installer had buttons down 
at the bottom of the screen, and my display was smaller than the standard Apple 
one, and so the buttons were off screen. This caused considerable misery before 
I figured out why there were no continue buttons.
