"Come out to the house and load the software"?!?  How hard can that 
possibly be?  I mean, I use a Mac and so the software is pretty much 
idiot proof--pop, click, click, and surf.  But I can't believe that the 
Wintel package could be *that* much of a bear to work with, that they 
have to come out and do it for you.
