In general, Microsoft has moved away from being the evil empire and has been
writing really good code for a long time now. Vista has compatability issues
that may or may not be directly related to MS, but the bottom line is that a
lot of thing don't work well and when you are the ubiquitous OS in the
world, regardless of the cause of frustration, it becomes your problem!!

Have to disagree. I run the business edition of Vista and explorer bombs on
me almost daily. Yes, most issues are with drivers for 3rd party apps and
that is a huge pain and a huge reason why everyone isn't jumping on the
bandwagon. However, while I won't make a blanket statement echoing 'vista
works terrible', I'll instead say that for me, Vista doesn't work so great.

Seinfied only got 10 million. Remember my earlier post. It isn't
Microsoft's fault, Vista works great. It is 3rd party vendors who can't
seem to writer their software properly to work on it. Microsoft needs to
spend that money to engage these vendors and teach them how to write their
software to work on Vista. And the world would be a better place.

spend the money optimizing and fixing Vista.
