Yeah, great for the manufacturers who want to sell you new hardware, not so great for the consumer who paid good money for a piece of hardware that has no upgrade or support path.
Imagine buying Brand X PC while your buddy bought Brand Y. He gets the latest Win7 patches and service packs while you don't.
And the only way for you to get them is to either scour the net every day hoping some HS nerd took the time to hack a rock solid solution or go buy a new PC because that's exactly what we're talking about.
Ridiculous
