Microsoft should consider including a version of this video on their forthcoming release of Windows 10 to run during the install process. This would make for a happy trip down memory lane for the older folks and it would also show those youngsters out there how much things have improved. The install would breeze by with this little video to watch, plus, if there were any niggles, you would think nothing of it as you would be reminded what a pain it was to install the earlier versions.

The video would also be of great practical benefit to those that had spent the last few decades locked away in prison, or having been in a coma or having been in a forced-labour camp in North Korea for all of that time. They could be quickly brought up to speed and made aware of the many new innovations.

I think that the use of GParted is telling - the Microsoft way is to force a fresh format of the disk in order to go from FAT16.

Coming soon: similar video of Slackware being installed and upgraded from version 0.99 to 14.whatever. That's bound to go viral.
