Anybody who seriously want's to use a computer buys a Mac. You get what you pay for guys - Macs are better at everything. Windows is used by common people, all you Windows fan boys are quite happy to bitch about Microsoft - but you won't do anything about it? Are you too scared or mean to upgrade to a Mac? Do you not know enough to use Linux and configure it? I think you love it when Microsoft holds your hands and tells you "Everything is going to be alright when Vista is released" Cheers, from a Mac Fan Boy : ) OS X is what Vista wants to be.

The vista file search has yet to find a single file ive ever put onto a vista system, without clicking through a lengthy unmemorable sequence of 'advanced' buttons. Vista runs dog slow even after ive disabled all the pointless animations. I have lost track of the number of times managers in the company have requested my help in getting their vista laptop to connect to the company wireless network. I dont even use it and i already hate it. Now thats what i call a real successful failure ! Bill, to save your credibility before you retire, sack everyone responsible for vista !

This release of Windows is the worst I have ever experienced and this is from someone who used Windows BEFORE 3.11. Lockups, crashes, hangs, destroys my Word documents, takes forever to do any operation. Seriously, Bill, this is an absolutely SHITE release of Windows and I wish I had the time to trash the laptop and install Windows XP which, finally, got to a stable release. How on earth does Microsoft get away with it? (don't bother replying) What a joke. This release of Windows is the worst I have ever experienced and this is from someone who used Windows BEFORE 3.11.

It crashes all the time, it is not compatible with main applications, even Microsoft's, munches tons of RAM, takes hours to load, and the interface is a *complete* mess! I was expecting few, very efficient services and many other optional things, instead I find a maze of useless, pretty gadgets. A nicely designed chunk of SHIT. Bravo, Mr. Gates!

I've got it on five new computers I just bought, and networking is so secure now that it's completely impossible. One machine can see the other, but can't get to it. What a pile.
