       Works for me :-).  Bundling software is one of the ways M$ gains
  marketshare too.  What they like most about it is that it's a great way
  to convince someone to purchase an upgrade who may have never even
  considered purchasing the original product, but since they already have
  a copy they're more inclined to want the latest release.
