I do.  Last year I had to replace my laptop twiece because they died.
On my current one is on its second hardrive.  I've reinstalled Windows five 
times in the last six months alone.  It always a bother to contact the 
vendor of a software and try to convince them that I'm not a software 
pirate and that my laptop DID get hit by lighting/infected by virus/spyware/etc.

The problem with this approach is that it assumes the user is thief until
proven otherwise.
