Change that to "can anyone cite a successful installed long-term instance of a day-to-day desktop XXXXX system used by a non-techie, other than the one that came pre-installed (and pre-paid) on their system?".

Non-techies just use what's already on the box, and MS forces h/w sellers to pre-install MS products.
