Part of this is from the nostalgia of never having to update your shit in the days of Windows 9x and Windows XP. Installing stuff never required a system update or an internet connection. Drivers were installed via floppy disk or CD. There were tons of other problems all the time of course but at least we didn't have to remember to update stuff.
