Really depends on what you want to use it for!
I have had a 50D since I began photography etc start of last year. They are a solid camera..and when Solid I mean metal and big so they are heavy...put a lot of strain on your focuser if you are planning to use it for AP!!!
In terms of performance they are a bit of a beast, still 1.6 sensor so it is a bonus for using tele len's and shooting through refractors and the like! It produces nice images and hadles the high noise shooting quite well. I hope to upgrade to a 5d from here then keep my 50D (get it modded) for AP until I get my greasy mits on a CCD!
It just depends really on what you want to achieve. I know you will instantly see an improvement in the quality of shots and performance compared to the 450D!!
Hope this helps.
