I always compare Microsoft with buying a Toaster as a self asembly Kit.
You get the Toaster Box it is nice and shiney it has lots of special features and if you throw in your toast nothing happens.
And than you realize the heating Elements are missing and there ist a delivery every couple of month, and you get one Element after another, and years go past till you can finaly use your Toaster. And when that day comes, your toaster is out of date, becauce they have new toast sizes and you have to start again...!
Its the same with Microsofts produckts they promise the world and deliver an unfinsched Beta like Produckt still. And you even have to pay a lot of money for this cosmetically updated Produckt.
I do ask myself wy we let Bill Gates do this to us, we wouldnt alowe Siemens,Krups or Phillips to sell us a toaster like that...or would we?
And really! First the computers get bigger,better and fasten and than comes out software that is bigger und has a thousand features, more than one hardly ever uses and or vice a versa and BIG BROTHER becomes more and more pungent in smell of total control over us.
Linux apears as shining star on the horizon but it still has its usabillity problems mainly for those of us who forgot how to think thanks for that to mirosoft too..-Yours Klaus

totally incompatible with all windows based software.
From ground up Vista shouldve been a NEW OS all together.
new code new language, new everything.
YES, its drastic. Yes it would take time for developers to make versions of their software for it. But from that point all, all the known problems with previous microsoft OS's would be eliminated in one pop.
Microsoft has the bank to do it, and the man power, but as we see with
vista they simply dont have the brains.
Unfortunately, we can already see where vista is headed,
its the same sad story over and over. but this time.
I think people will sadly switch to mac, as we are all tired of the
same song for more money. Just look at the auto industry.
same thing. why buy misery and problems when your dollar is better
spent elsewhere. all they had to do, was make 1 version that worked.
not try to milk the consumers with several versions, all of which is Really beta. Worried about security!? A complete new OS from ground up wouldve eliminated All viruses all holes, everything, just from having a new programing language. those hacks would simply not work.
Its soooo simple. But the damage is done.
All hail the new King of headaches VISTA!
-and on a side note I hate macs too,-
