Dude, this bug has been around for years, I'm glad to see someone is finally doing something about it!

Interestingly enough, the incarnation of this problem is different in Japan. When I worked for TurboLinux, our 4.0 Workstation release outsold Windows 98 in retail outlets for several months, if I recall correctly. Do we need a separate bug for retail use cases?

It is worth noting that, every now and again, users need to upgrade their desktop software. Maybe there is a bit of natural selection in the fact that Windows users in some cases have to go through a rejection process. If this is the case, it may be helpful for our cause for computers to ship with Windows.
