My migrations always work (right this moment, moving from my G4 MDD to an iMac!), since the day OSX came out. I, and most everyone else I know, uses the OS as it comes, and at least /can/ use it without fuss if they have to sit down at another computer. And don't think emotional design (feeling like its better than it is) is not a science, and a great achievement for any company. Old line companies make lots of great products. There are a few failed industries (autos seem so lost) but have you bought a good tool ever? I mean drill presses and hammers. These are some of my most satisfying experiences, and don't think they aren't systems. Things absolutely attach to them, and high-use folks burn a lot of bits and blades so making this work right is a critical need.
