Y'know, I had this paragraph-long post on the factors that determine how long a Windows install will last planned out... and then I realized that all
I'd done was come to the same conclusion you already have. For what you've said you do with your PC (CoX, moderate net-surfing, e-mail, writing,
etc.), two years isn't very long at all. You could probably go five without seeing problems, and stretch that another six months to a year before it
started to get unacceptably crufty.
Lucky dog. With all the games I install and remove, I'm lucky to get three years.
