While I can't argue with that, I thought it was referring to buying a
pre-set up box, that's all ready to go.  That's difficult for many users
to arrange, if they're not buying Windows or Mac.  It's relatively easy
to do for Windows, though I've certainly accounted boxes that were
broken from the get go.



Windows Vista - lovely view, shame about the plumbing...
