I have three 7.2/.3 machines, two servers and a desktop.  I installed 9
onto a new desktop and server to try it out.  Things are quite different
and I continue to have issues running some Perl CGI on RH9.  

If you are happy with the 7.2 machine, I wouldn't upgrade.  If you do
upgrade, you can count on at least a few problems--hopefully offset by
getting the lastest and greatest versions of the packages in the RH 9
install (I was looking forward to the Ximan stuff).  And, of course,
there's also the small matter that Red Hat claims it will stop issuing
updates for your 7.x machine at the end of the year.
