OpenBSD's way for system upgrades is so easy: unzip tarballs, run /etc diff, reboot. Its always astonishing how simple and carefree it is to upgrade to the next major. Contrary to that, most companies would never upgrade a linux system. My feeling is, the most used "upgrade" plan for debian is to not upgrade as long as possible and then do a full reinstall with a new version.
