Wow - I guess I missed the news that MSFT is not selling these in DVD format anymore [1]. I hate that. As a customer, it's a catch 22 of convenience and inconvenience. The "pro" is that I can download it anywhere, anytime. The "con" is that there's a lot more work on my part now. Download speeds aside, I still have to (a) learn (and remember) how to download it, (b) find where it was downloaded to, and (c) remember to back it up/copy to another location because my "privilege" to download it only is for one year (typically). Oh sure, to you and I those are trivial tasks but to our parents and grandparents, those are far from trivial tasks. I suppose MSFT is saying, "IT departments are the ones who should be installing this, not regular folk."
