If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the 
precipitate. :-)

In this case, they want everyone to upgrade quickly. It will be 
interesting to see how successful they will be. Will there be a 
significant rump group of people who stick to 1.x, probably 
running it on Windows XP or even 95, or will most people migrate 
within a month or two? (Says the guy who tries to keep his 
software up to date, but has some 32 bit programs that Apple is 
determined to make not run.)
