I love my induction hob - super-fast (like Porkchop I managed to burn a few things before I cottoned on how fast it could be), no burnt-on grime (because the glass never gets particularly hot), and instant response.
Most of my pans were on their last legs, so replacing them wasn't an issue. Funnily enough, my cheapo Argos pan left over from student days still worked!
Induction pans are no more expensive than regular ones, just harder to find. I bought a set in Ikea that were pretty inexpensive.
One little down-side - if you have all four rings on at once, you can't have them all on high, or they tend to "pulse". But that's a pretty rare occurrence.
I would never go back to gas. All those fiddly bits to clean.....
