Brain-dead users like me cling to Windows 2000 (because it works, and because 
it supports the applications I use), which doesn't support IE7.  So why didn't 
Microsoft port IE7 to Windows 2000?  Then it would be easy (for me to try it).

Most of Microsoft's customers are brain-dead by your (Tom Piowar's) standards.  
MS needs to cater to brain-dead customers.  Sure, if I want to figure out the 
intricacies of VMWare, I can run Win2K in a virtual machine on WinXP/sp2 or 
Vista, and have both available, but that requires twice the hardware (twice the 
memory, at least).
