Vista needs a louder trumpet

Fine, if all Microsoft has are trumpets. In his interview he said that Vista was doing exceedingly well in consumer markets and that it was hard to find a PC that didn't have Vista installed.
That's what monopoply power can exert. I could tell him also that it's impossible to buy a laptop without Vista. We used to rail at the Soviet Union for their "you are free to choose any car you like as long as it's a Lada".
That's the state of choice and freedom as it exists today where we are free to choose any PC we like as long as it has Vista installed.
