On the other hand, Microsoft's software is notoriously hard to
upgrade. I know absolutely no "ordinary person" who has ever
successfully upgraded their system.
I know a couple who tried, and quickly gave up and opted for total
reinstall.
Most find even a reinstall so horribly impossible that they just buy a
*new computer* when they want to upgrade the OS.
