My rule of thumb is always do an archive and install on a new major version of OSX. I have had MAJOR issues with 10.5 using the upgrade method. Corrupt preference files, ethernet ports not working, wireless not working, kernel panics... some pretty screwed up stuff.

Some upgrades go fine and dandy. My Mac Mini worked great. Same with my G4 Powerbook. But, the Mac Pro was not happy, and neither was the MacBook Pro.
