Vista is total shyte!
Over complicated.
Too protective of itself yet it fails to do that  

Some of the extras might be good on XP but they want extra dollars for it  

I hate it, prevents you from doing what you want for pop-up warning boxes and when you get past all that it encounters a problem.
"Click here to fix the problem" it says   Then when you click it says "Vista has no answer for the problem and can't fix it"      

Crap!!!!
Microsoft can keep it

A female friend of mine got a new computer last week.  She didn't ask for XP Pro as I advised ... and got effin' Vista instead ... which doesn't support her 3-in-1.  I told her to download drivers ... and guess what ... Vista does not accommodate her printer/scanner/fax.

So what's she doing???  Going to buy a new 3-in-1 tomorrow ...

The one she has, she bought last October ...

Go figure!!!
