Some Leopard upgraders see 'blue screen of death'

It is nothing but a Microsoft conspiracy...

But seriously, in place upgrade options were some of the biggest issues with Windows Vista as a whole. I think this same issue now occuring with OS X simply underscores that the modern OS is far to complex a thing to simple pull an "in place upgrade" anymore....
