You bet.  I can install Ubuntu in 20 minutes.  This month, I needed to
install Access 2003, and so Windows XP, on a Win 98 machine, for a contract
my wife was doing.  It took me SIX hours to get XP installed (thankfully,
the Access install was a breeze), and in the end I had to wipe the existing
installation and just install new.

Windows is easy because most of us never have to install it...
