I, along with many others, have had no problems using Vista. The majority of
people having problems with Vista are those who try to install and use
incompatible programs and those who do not have an understanding of how to
configure their system.

The truth of the matter is this: yes, Vista has some bugs, which is normal
with a new operating system and yes, third party vendors have an abysmal
record of making their products compatible with Vista.

People who continuously whine about Vista will also whine about anything and
everything they don't understand or can't overcome. The way to overcome these
obstacles is to educate yourself.

"the truth hurts" is just another whiner, incapable of using Vista. Of
course, I await his or her defensive reply. I wonder what it will be.

Have a nice day.

C.B.

In fact, no OS appears in the list. This is as one would expect in light of
the fact that operating systems are rarely if ever INNOVATIVE..

You notice the top 25 products are the ones that usually have 1 to 2 percent
market share? Hmm, I wonder why.

I also suspect that some of the Vista haters around here are actually
malware developers who have a vested interest in for the public to hang on
XP as long as possible. It seems Vista closed quite a few doors. I've seen a
post here where a guy said that he was a software developer and none of his
software worked in Vista. I can say that either he is a complete idiot,
which is unlikely for a developer, or he is a malware purveyor.

Apparently Linux, Leopard and other operating systems also are not on
the list.
For that matter no software is on the list.
Is is little surprise a software manufacturer does not make a list
that apparently is not concerned about software.
Unlike you, myself and many others do not need some list to determine
what works for us.
I am able to try it and know that it works for me, regardless what
this irrelevant list states.

But in your normal bias, you wanted to make something of nothing.

Windows Vista is not a disappointment here and runs well on two older
computers of mine.

WTF? If they made all their "Easyshite" products compatible with each
other it would be a start.

Neglects to mention that Leopard IS on the other list. Go figure.
