It's still analogous to replacing the engine to save the trouble of changing the oil, though. And some of the things that cause people to reinstall Windows on their systems are like buying a new car because you ran out of gas.

(Though mind you, with the price of gas these days, that may not be such a lopsided proposition.)
That is just so much BS and wrong information - "gorked"...it is extermely rare for the registry to experience file corruption, and windows stores backup copies anyways.
