Why in earth continue this endless circle. Since Microsoft started to make OS they have always promied more and better systems. But since the release of Windows 98. Nearly everything have only become wose.

I actually do remember when i did work in Office 95. It worked semaless. Nowadays i can't even create a bullet list. That is only one problem and there are dozens of others that is still not fixed in the 2003 version.

Okey that was the office application not the OS that the article speaks about. Well read everything in the list and compare the spec from Vista to the newest (already reallesd SUSE). Well wow u already got most of the functionality that should be inovative in Vista. What a joke. What more. Why pay for a wannabe Unix OS when u can get one free and a lot more secure....so why way those $200....+ new Office + new devlopment tools + new compiuter. Well if u are not totaly insane u just download the latest from internet and save your company , School several thousands or even millions of dollars.

Its time to demand that the OS shall cost zero. And that is only the consumer that can do that. And that means you.
