I really like Vist ... not

Microsoft, in their wisdom, decided at some point in time, to idiot
proof their software. In effect what they've done is made it more difficult
to do things if you're not an idiot. Example, they've removed the file type
tab from the folder options so now you have to go into the registry if you
want to add more parameters rather than just the default exe to the "open
with" settings.
Another example, I've always used Outlook Express rather than MS Outlook
as my email client. I don't like MS Office. I think it's a bloated memory
hog and I don't like the fact that you can't subscribe to newsgroups with MS
Outlook. Now, in Vista, OE is no longer there. You need to use Windows Mail.
Windows mail doesn't allow you to display your contact list in the same
window. You have to open a new window to see your contacts.
The longer I use it the more I realize Vista really blows! I can only
assume that the son of Vista, Windows 7, is even worse. i wish I had stuck
with XP.
