What’s wrong with Windows Vista?
I just came across a neat little article on PC Magazine’s website called Vista’s 11 Pillars of Failure. Give it a look! It’s very short and to the point. Now, bringing this stuff to your attention doesn’t make me a hater of Microsoft…. just a hater of Microsoft’s propaganda machine. I just feel better about myself when I help share the truth about things like this with people who may not be aware of the reality of it all. The saddest part of all is that Windows XP will not be available for purchase after June 18th of this year, and the only way you’ll be able to get yourself a fresh copy is if you can find a computer manufacture who has downgraded a Vista machine for you. Dell is one such company that is going to be doing this, but due to a loophole in the paperwork, Microsoft is planing to legally pretend that Dell is actually selling Vista machines. You can read about that shaddy little plan here.
A good quote to go along with this might be: Statistics are like a bikini. What they reveal is suggestive, what they conceal is vital.
