I can't help but wonder whether Microsoft found a way to get everyone to
spend another ninety to a hundred bucks every few years to replace a
flawed OS with another questionable one. Perpetual upgrades bring in bucks.

Maybe If You Can't Afford To Spend The Money On A New Operating System, You
Should Check Out That Crippled Ubuntu. Just FYI. Once You Spend A Few Days
With Ubuntu, You Will Look At Microsoft In A New Light. Just FYI.

No, it's not the money. It's the principal. I'd be very surprised if
Windows 7 was offered at a minimal upgrade cost to Vista owners.
As for Ubuntu, you get what you pay for. That same principal should
apply to Windows.
 
If you're happy with your present O/S, then don't upgrade. No one is
forcing you to do so.
