Vista was in beta for how long? Blame the thrid party software and hardware companies for not developing compatible drivers. They had plenty of time to develop them, and they chose not to.

That's what I thought. I chose to try Vista thinking it would work for me. It does not. I'm not some computer geek that wants it to do crazy *****. I just want to do basic stuff that I've had no problem doing on all 3 of my XP machines. My new, "more advanced" computer does less than my 3 year old AMD laptop. Where's the value in that?
On your second point-why should 3rd parties change their product to accomodate an inferior product? Also, I like my 1 year old software. It does exactly what I need it to do. Why should I re-learn new, not to mention pay for, new software when mine isn'; A-that old at all, and B-works great? Yes. There is an answer-billionaires that want to be trillionaires. Our needs are no longer the priority.
It's at this point that I feel the general public is being pushed onto a very expensive, and annoying merry go round run by a handful of people. I look forward to the next group of innovators that make this crap obsolete.
If you think I'm some anti Microsoft zealot-check my threads. I hate Apple "almost" as much. I've always liked my XP machines. But, I may have to give Apple another try.
