Should I install it or sell it? Thoughts.

It'd leave a very bad taste in the mouth of other developers if you sell it. You don't have to install it, but personal opinion: don't sell it.

I don't know any of the other developers, it was just answering a few questions.

First time I've seen that video, Rick; damn well made me laugh. =P
I have Ultimate edition sitting on a shelf behind me. I installed it once but I had to remove it in under 2 hours, as the driver issues were really bugging me.
My suggestion, keep it somewhere. You never know - you may need a coaster one day or a spare frisbee or something.

I'm actually using that right now. It's a terrific theme.

I have just bought a shredder if that helps ;)
Seriously though, it's always useful to have or testing purposes. I guess I'll need to install Vista at some point to test a software application I built a while back, no idea if it works on Vista at all!
