I am not him, but on one older Mac, I am running Snow Leopard because it's the last OS X I can run on a 32bit computer.

And yes, I know, it has all the terrible ShellShock bugs and other stuff that will never be fixed, but I just need to run some OS X software time from time and I won't buy a new Mac because of that.

And when I tried to install Linux on that, Wi-fi didn't work properly, and there were some other issues I had with I think rebooting and maybe some other hardware stuff (I know, it sounds like a cliche, but it's true)

I don't feel there are any real benefits in upgrading. It'll just slow down my MacBook even more.

Thanks for the honest reply. I wasn't trying to be judgemental, just trying to understand specific reasons, rather than admit the nebulous cloud of "because".

I still run Tiger on a PowerBook G4.
