Upgrade to Red Hat 8.0?

Anyone know what the big differences are between 7.3 & 8.0 which would compel an upgrade?

It is always such a pain in the butt to do the downloads I wonder how different it is and if I should be aggressively downloading or just taking my time over the next 2 months.

What do you think?
 
8.0 is compiled with gcc 3.2... of course there other improvements, but really the question is "Is there a reason I shouldn't upgrade." For instance "I'm too lazy to download the stuff." Would probably qualify :0)
 
I do have to say that a department here (at work) tested it yesterday and said there were significant desktop improvements. It appears this is another step toward Linux becoming a more functional desktop. I like RH 7.3 a lot and can only imagine what 8 is going to look like. I may load it this afternoon after I finish burning it on cd.
