When I installed DE, it was pretty obvious. I had to consent to the installation and a bar popped up to show the installation progress. Maybe I'm just more observant than the average computer user, but I would have found the whole process a little hard to miss.
What about the people whose PDFs stopped working because they had to reinstall the OS? It's happened. What about people whose PDFs stopped working for no other reason than a year had passed since the sale? That's happened.
