    You wont get them. Microsoft doesn't publicly tell how many people are forced to reinstall on the same keys or have any real way of reported failures of its OS.

    Hardware manufacturers don't release details of percentage failures of its hardware unless it becomes so high that its obvious in mainstream media.

    Best thing you can do is ring alocsl pc shop and ask for the stats. they obviously wont be specific though.
