Microsoft's Vista Problems (bits.blogs.nytimes.com)

I bought a Lenovo laptop and quite frankly regret it because it runs Vista. The OS is slow and unresponsive in infuriating ways.

Vista simply is the simple reason why Mac sales have gone through the roof in the past quarter.

"Mr. Liddell dismissed claims that some customers were reluctant to buy Vista machines. “There are no Vista-related issues at all,” he declared."

puff puff give, dude...

With virtualization coming to the forefront, OSes are going to cease to matter very much soon.

Vista is the last gasp of a dying bloodline.

Vista is to XP as WinMe was to Win98. Microsoft will recover with Windows 7, but the question will be how much of a role the OS plays in 2010 compared to what it did in 2001.
