I suppose for *you* "installing a piece of software with a few clicks of
the mouse" equates to "impossible"; but I can assure you that is
certainly *not* the case for all people - and thank goodness. What a
dumb planet this would be!

Bullshit, as anyone who has actually used it will be able to echo. I've
used it before and it simply works. Sure, disk access isn't extremely
fast; but it *gets the job done*, which is more than can be said of your
"impossible" non-solution above. Grow up.
