The running joke with my kids every weekly update from Debian (mostly 
Etch) involves my announcing that I have made massive changes to their 
system. They respond, "And we won't notice any difference." True, they 
won't. That's a good thing.

My daughter's machine is the oldest in the house, and has gone through 
the most changes. If she went from the Linux she had when it was first 
installed (almost 4 years ago) directly to today's, she would notice 
right away.
