Resistance To Change

I alwayz wonder how things work.
You hear a developer (programmer) complaining that he/she can't get more requirements from users coz they "seem" to be "resistant to change".
The developer blames the slow progress of projects on user who are "resistant to change".
But have you ever wondered?
When a new software comes in, or better still a newer version of an IDE or Development framework, or new Browser (ha-ha-ha here comes Chrome again!!...) comes in, how many times have you heard the same developer criticizing the software. 
In fact, how many are fond of Windows VISTA or OpenSuse 11.x?
You hear all sorts of funny comments like "it is a waste of time", "it won't beat the current one","i'll stick to what I'm using coz it's super".

So you tell me something. If the developers themselves are so resistant to change, then who is gonna take what other developers are introducing?
