"What's new in Leopard? A lot. From the unified interface (goodbye, brushed aluminum) to major under-the-hood changes, to wholly new apps, Leopard is a substantial, albeit evolutionary, advance for Mac OS X that builds on a solid foundation and adds a modicum of eye candy to reinforce the notion that this is something new and improved. It's also fast - especially impressive given the new graphics sprinkled throughout the OS."

As a fairly new user of OS/X this will be the first Apple O/S upgrade that I have experienced.
If it works as advertised OOTB then great. If Apple then continue to provide quality software (yes I know about some of their foopah's in the past) and don't get led up the same neanderthal dead end that Microsoft has gone with Vista then I would have to say carry on.
If on the other-hand, they get dragged into the DRM fiasco that is all over Vista then I'm sure that the i ncrease in sales that they have recently reported will end PDQ.
My MacBook pro will quite happily run several flavours of Linux so now that I have brokern away from the MS noose, I can switch quite easily. There will be I am sure, many in the same position as me.
