+That's fine. It can be changed later. No problem with that.

+I decided to update production computers, to give some real update
+feedback. I could not install a beta or alpha on those systems.
+
+To complete the experience, I updated a 64 bits MDV 2010.2, without any
+problem (Intel graphic chipset).
+
+So far, I am pretty impressed by the easy migration from MDV 2010.2 to
+MGA 1.
+
+Keep up the good job.
