Microsoft...WTF?

He said "young little boogers" in reference to the college kids.

Can he say that on TV?

Vista is actually more than decent if, and only if, you run it on new, high powered systems. But it still has a few problems, even after SP1. And that is why MS is close to losing me on this product. This service pack was their opportunity to make things 100% right. They blew it.

This product reminds me of a GM committee designed car. Too many features that get in the way of ease of use and not enough answers to real customer needs.

Let me start by saying I only use computers to communicate at the MS Office level via the net and email...I don't personally "crunch" anything other than nachos.

When my last computer when sneakers up four months ago, I bought an HP Pavilion with Vista. I did this because the laptop was on sale and I really didn't care too friggin' much and I needed to get the purchase to my IT guy so he could load all the Da Vinci Codes I need to access my DoD email.

So far, so good...there are even some nice features Luddite's like me can appreciate. Time will tell. Non event so far.
