Disagree. And besides, what an enormous pain for anyone who really uses a
computer, that is to say anyone who has many hundreds of applications that
would have to be installed, and who has made uncountable tweaks to the system
so that they can interact with it the way they want to.
If this was necessary to keep a Windows system running smoothly (it is not),
the only Windows system I'd be running would be on a virtual machine inside of
Linux, only for the applications that simply have to have Windows.
You don't suppose corporations do this (reinstall annually), do you? <g>
