There are snags in everything, though. For such a wide-scale implementation, WGA went over pretty well in a technical sense. Everyone complained about it, but there were precious few "WGA killed my Windows XP install" complaints. Which is pretty remarkable, since we're talking about Microsoft here...

Exactly.

Admittedly, Microsoft did very well with WGA percentage-wise. But then you forget individuals when dealing with percentages. Around the country were a lot of people who were told they were criminals and couldn't get updates to their OS, and they did nothing wrong.
