Ubuntu by default will inform you when new versions are available and automatically upgrade you. That can be convenient -- I installed Ubuntu 8.10 from CD on my desktop to triple boot with Win2K Pro and Win XP Pro, and 9 had just come out. I let it upgrade me to the new release, which saved downloading an ISO image and burning a CD.
I have a fast (10mbps) cable modem connection with no bandwidth caps, so it
was convenient to do it that way.
The Ubuntu upgrades are a bit like Windows critical patches, though you are assuming less risk if you
don't upgrade...
