Why should I upgrade to 8.10 Intrepid

[happinesskills]

I've got Ubuntu Hardy, & am contemplating upgrading to Intrepid.

Currently I have nothing against Hardy (& I have Intrepid's Network Manager installed), but I'm wondering if it's worth it. I've read around on the internet for it's new features & I've become impressed.

Has anyone else got Intrepid, was it worth upgrading?
Should I wait a bit longer until Intrepid hasn't got bugs anymore?
Should I even wait till 9.xx comes out?

You should wait imho.

If you want OpenOffice 3.x, that can be installed both in 8.04.x and 8.10.

If you want Gimp 2.6 (Some photoshop professionals mentioned on this forum that they find Gimp 2.4 a big improvement over Gimp 2.4), then use it from backports.

I don't want it for OpenOffice or GIMP.

I am mainly interested in the features listed here (http://polishlinux.org/linux/ubuntu/whats-new-in-ubuntu-810/)

If you must ask why, you don't need it. Try the live CD and decide on your own.
