Win7 vs XP-Vista

People have become complacent, they couldn't care less if windows xx is a quality product. The EULA absolves MS of all responsibility so they couldn't care less what the public thinks, all they care about is the amount of money in their coffers. They have been forcing flawed software on the public for over 25 years, and not once has there been an offer to refund purchase price or make a recall. They just put out a new version and force you to pay for an upgrade, and go their happy way, knowing the user will do nothing. Jamie is right, people will not accept this kind of shoddy merchandise in any other product, so why do it to software?
