Yeah that makes sense. Especially when you have to buy the same movie 5 times on DVD to get all the hyper-turbo-ninja special features and collectable metallic case.
One word: software. I can't run any of the Macromedia MX products or Adobe products in Linux. If I could I would completely switch of MS products in a heartbeat.

Sometime the BIOS upgrades are crucial! I had a HP workstation that needed a BIOS upgrade to take advantage of a newer faster processor. I had another machine that wouldn't recognize newer larger hard drives without the upgrade. So I guess they can be really important if your putting in new parts that might not have been supported when your board came out.

I have noticed a trend at consulting firms where one guy or girl always seams to get stuck with the real pain-in-the-ass clients.
I always thought of them as the "Whipping-Boy".
