True, but, at least in principle, you can figure out what the fuck went 
wrong, and submit a fix for it. MS and all their 3rd party cronies (and 
yes, slapping "Designed for XP/Vista/Windows 7" on the box makes you a 
crony), quite often won't even acknowledge that some problem even exist, 
or that your could possibly be having one, never mind fix it.
