      Did i say they needed it?

      This may surprise you, but to your average person (or even your technical person who is time-poor for whatever reason), moving to a new OS is a frustrating or time consuming process, so they delay the move until they get (or build) a new PC.

      Your average person stays on the same OS for the lifetime of the computer.
