Windows 7, Do you have the TIME for it?

I used to work at Microsoft, not so very long ago, and I am so glad to be out of there...but...
I keep hoping that Microsoft will LEARN from their mistakes, only, they seem to be on the whole, "We are Microsoft" kick...

Ah well...

SO I was reading an article about the Estimated Upgrade times, and, well, do you really have time for this?

"Microsoft: Windows 7 upgrade can take nearly a day"

"A clean 32-bit install on what Microsoft calls 'high-end hardware' should take only 30 minutes."

Ok, not bad so far...

"Microsoft really did time an upgrade that took 20 hours and 20 minutes. That's with 650GB of data and 40 applications, on mid-end hardware, and during a 32-bit upgrade."

20 hours, really?
