This is why so many linux people get SO frustrated by people who complain
about Linux's install process.  Everyone who talks about how much harder
Linux is to install than Windows generally HASN'T installed windows.
They are comparing putting on an OS to using the pre-installed one
that came with their peecee.

Hell, I'd wager some of the weenie "distros" are much easier to install
than windows, but it's tough to compete with "already done".
