By the way, this is what most of people do with Windows. Even more :
most of Windows users just stay with their OS until buying a new computer.

If we want to look in a "very end-user" perspective, a computer is only
supposed to work with the OS it was shipped with. Dell sold me a
computer which is supposed to work with Hardy, and it does work with
hardy. The fact to install a Jaunty *is not* an end-user behavior. The
first line of the GPL is very clear on that point ;)
