Personally, I run sites on both vBulletin and xenForo for different reasons.

You shouldn't put your eggs all in one basket, right

I've done the same.. though I sold all my vB licences but one... And that is because my biggest forum uses vB and I don't see XF a viabile option to replace it with do to poor hacks on the market.

My other smaller forums have been converted to XF and I don't mind them. BTW I am using vB 3.8.7 not 4. I still think vB4 is terrible and a resource hog.

But I agree with you.. it's not always best to get ride of everything, though it depends on preference too. I have a connection with vB 3 series still. But I'm sure slowly I will adapt to the XF series.
