This I agree, but they do not do it in such a notorious manner as Linux which will do it every 6 months. At least other OS have a longer release cyclye and often provide backword compatibility for a number of new versions.
But why do you upgrade the OS every 6 months ? For e.g. if you use a distro like Ubuntu - they have releases with distinct cycles and goals -- the LTS release (currently 10.04 ) and the regular 6 month cycle release (which is like running debian-testing ....and is really a "beta" ) . If you use a LTS release you upgrade every 18 months - and dont break that easy in upgrades.
