I think it would make good sense. I hesitate to buy their products because I feel I am going to be left high and dry when the next operating system comes out. Every time my PC fails or is retired it is a guessing game as to what still works. Since software is so expensive, I find I am buying less and less – too risky. I simply do without and do not expand my IT horizons. It is a lot cheaper for the parent company to try it out and give a report than for every single user to take the plunge and potentially drown. The customers can only find out by installing the product. If it doesn’t work then there is the task of getting it off. Generally the software does not come off completely and the residue can cause complications. The companies could test until it stops working and then say that from this point back you will have to buy a new one. It sure would build consumer confidence and end a lot of aggravation.
