Hey, I hate Microsoft as much as the next guy, but some of this is just
silly.

That's a pretty remarkable claim . . . and where is Windows supposed to
have been developed, then?

No need to re-partition. No option to do so. In general, fewer
choices; simpler to use. Of course, if it won't install, you're SOL. I
have only a 50% success rate with Windows 98 installations (3/6), but if
it works at all, it's very easy to do. And since you can't do anything
about it, you just buy a new computer if it doesn't work. Easy!
