Upgrade or fresh install? Or neither?

Which do you do?

Fresh install. I would never do a straight upgrade.

Fresh install this release to make sure GRUB2 get on there correctly and to make sure you get new filesystem on HDD which is EXT4 and has speed increases over default for 9.04 which was EXT3.

Wow that was fast;) Same here. Upgrade takes longer and is not as fast.

I used to do upgrades until I became more familiar with what I generally need for ease of use3. Now I just do fresh installs as another poster suggested it is just faster, and I have all my stuff on a external HD anyway.

I try to upgrade but it is slow so I downloaded and do a fresh install instead. So far so good no bug or anything. But then I just use about now.

Upgrading since Hardy...been smooth as a silk.
I even changed my partitions to ext4 without a reinstall.
