Pretty much anyone that wants "usable" memory over 4GB, to get rid of 
BSDs, without reinstalling (I need that soon), and actually likes the 
idea of playing *any* modern game with DirectX10 or higher, including 
games as old as Halo 2, on their desktop. In short, anyone that isn't 
scared of upgrading. XP is as close to dead as you can get, without MS 
having shoved the corpse over the edge of the castle wall, at this 
point, and it wasn't in terribly good shape from birth. Win7... Is still 
from the same diseased line, but, it seems to be at least somewhat of an 
improvement over the parents.
