I'm glad I didn't wait for Lion to purchase my new iMac. The reason being is that now with Snow Leopard having been out for a while, pretty much all developers have released versions of their software to work with Snow Leopard and many have been tweeked their sfotware to fix bigs and such.
The current expectation is Lion will be released in the summer and not all developers will be releasing Lion compatable software untill some time after Lion is released.
This would be a problem for me because I determined over the weekend that iPhoto didn't quite meet my needs and I needed to download 3rd party software and luckily, they had Snow Leopard version. If I wait for Lion, I don't believe the 3rd party software that I need will be ready when Lion is released so that will mean more delay and not to mention some potential bugs as Lion is released.
With that said, I'll wait until Lion matures in it's development from 3rd parties and then upgrade when I find that I can get the 3rd party software support.
