It's a pity that the MSI upgrade system is so sucky.. you have to do a 
major upgrade by changing the product key, otherwise it puts up a dialog 
box telling you to uninstall the previous version instead of doing the 
upgrade.

I'll have to see if there's a way of writing the product key to a fixed 
registry key.
