I disagree with you there, I've noticed a marked improvement going from an Athlon XP 3200 (Socket A) to an Athlon 64 3500 (Socket 939), when I went from a Pentium 233 (S-Socket 7) to a Slot P2, again, massive improvement, no-one forces people to upgrade straight away and I think whatever is current at the time lasts long enough for people to wait until something comes along that will make a noticable difference.
