David, How about the thousands and thousands of applications installed over the internet? Actually this has been the biggest hindrance to upgrading for me. When ever I think of the applications I have installed and how I came across them, ofcourse I think of the internet capacity consumed and if I am to have a fresh install, I shall have to re consume it to have the applications back.
