Well....

I have ICS on my Nexus3 phone.  For starters it does not have project Butter which is the 
optimizations for speed.  It also does not have the new users stuff (which is pretty cool actually), 
although only the 4.2 version of Jellybean has user, the previous version (4.1x) does not. 
Jellybean is a fairly major update from ICS - 4.04 to 4.2.

For a phone, users are probably pretty immaterial but for my Nexus 7 tablet it is very nice to have. 
  My son was constantly ordering stuff "by mistake" because my user had my Google account hooked up 
with a CC.  Now he has his own user and can't download anything.  I set up my account on his user, 
"downloaded" all of his games, then deleted my Google account.

Furthermore he was constantly complaining about my daughter Allie playing his games and ruining his 
scores etc.  With the users, each child (user) has their own scores for the games.  My wife as well.

Kinda nice all in all.  It really seems to work so far, though I have only played with it for an 
hour or so.
