Give Vista a Brake
I would like to take this moment to set the record straight about Windows Vista. This is a sour spot for Microsoft because all you hear about is the bad. Granted there are a few hardware, software and driver issues, but once you get past them, Vista is quite good. I built a top of the line computer a few years back, and of course, it is no longer up to par. When Vista was available, I installed it on this computer and was disappointed. More recently, I purchased a new desktop, and laptop, both of which run Vista, and with a new look at it, I think my judgment was premature. With SP1 out now, Vista is much better and more reliable. Some will say Vista is more reliable than XP, and I think that argument can be made. One thing is for sure, Vista is vastly more secure than its predecessors are. I do not think Vista is a substitute for Mac OS X, but for the average user, it is not bad. I am tired of people hounding on Vista give it a chance. With time, many will be using it and they will find that Vista actually did deliver a better user experience, more reliability, and improved security.
Update: the truth about Vista can be found at the Mojave experiment website.
