Re: Do you agree, or not, with that estimate

Disagree, but it's going to be tough to check. Most large site (including where I work) have software maintenance with Microsoft that lets us install any version of windows on any machine covered by the agreement. We've been getting machines in with Vista (and assorted bloatware) that we just format and install our configuration on. What it shipped with isn't necessarily what we run.

Note also that Microsoft will report millions of systems as "Vista" since they're under software assurance and therefor eligible for that.... change.... But many sites have delayed or refused such upgrades. In
