I must admit I do agree with you there. I can only assume that
something went wrong otherwise why would the installation bother to
create a windows.old file?

Bit frustrating sometimes innit? I got three "upgraded" Vistas on my
workbench need re-installing with the original XP and guess how many
original CDs and Driver disks came with them. £35-00 / hour I am not
complaining but I hate re-installing OSs its soooo bloody boooooring.

The owners will be even more upset when they get the bill.

Never mind eh!
