i don't know what they are like now, after the "comes installed" factor, but 
after MS had a press statement a month after release that said "they can't 
keep it on the shelves" i asked a guy at compusa about it.  he said, and i 
quote:

"maybe they can't keep it on the shelves because the box is top heavy and it 
keeps falling off.  i stock our software shelf and in 4 weeks i have 
replaced 2 boxes."

my brother does tech support for dell (i know, i know, i told him to have 
_some morals and become a pimp, did he listen?) and the techs there refer 
to XP as "the only OS to eat its own certified drivers and ask for 
seconds."  :)
