People who have vista 1.000.000

20 Percent of that are people who got a "vista ready" pc with XP installed
and were promised a copy of vista that they never touched because its a pile
a do doo.
18 percent are people who got vista with a new machine but were fed up with
it and formatted and installed XP
12 percent are people that installed XP on a second partition with Vista and
boot to vista only from time to time. Real work is done on the OS that
really works:XP
40 percent are people who pirated vista because they would never really pay
for such crap, or live in a 3rd world country and the cost of vista is what
they make in a year!
5 percent got free copies of vista due to participation in the beta programs
and other offerings so its free and they use it despite its crappyness
4 percent are tech geeks that need to have vista to experiment and learn so
they have it on a test machine but they use a real OS like XP Linux or Mac

so what is left? There is the 1%

Half of those are mentally retards that have way of knowing what they are
using.. so they dont count

that leaves us with 0.5 %

80% of those are reading the forums and starting to feel that they made a
mistake with vista.. they are starting to sweat

that leaves us with 0.2%

Half of those are Microsoft Employees that need to use it OR ELSE

that leaves us with only 0.1% that have vista and actually like it!!!

0.1 % of a million is 1000 people.

That 0.1% comes to this forum and spews lies about how stable and great
vista is!

That 0.1% is actually telling all the rest of the 99.9% that they dont know
what they are doing!

If you belong to that 0.1% you have the right to your opinion. But of course
you are wrong!

So put a sock in it already and start listening to the complaints are
realize that your dream machine is a worthless piece of monstrous crap!

Hello Bink, I'm not a Microsoft employee I'm an independent IT Technician in
the UK and all I can say is that Vista is working fine for me and my clients
on the 30+ Vista machines I've supplied to date.

I am like dell boy, I build and repair computers for my clients; so I had
pay for, install and learn Vista.

And I and MY customers don't have probs with it; except for occasional
incompatible drivers and programs, which are getting fewer in number as the
weeks go by.

Also, I am a small system builder who does not put all the crap on that
Dell, etc. does. And I know how to set up a computer properly.

You must have a very boring life, to just sit down and do % in your spare
time!

78% of all statistics quoted on the Internet are made up on the spot.

Its 92.33% actually, the 78% is an urban myth.

What is the percent of people that had to buy new hardware that they would
have not normally needed, like an extra gig RAM, sound card, etc.? And how
many people found that Camtasia, Nero, Snag-It, Adobe products, hundreds of
other expensive programs, did not work with Vista? How many thousands of
hours wasted on reading help docs and reading this forum where many
questions are never answered?

I was told the other day at comp.lang.php that 149% of all webstatistics
are flawed.

PS: Binkboy, get a life...
If you hate Vista, which is perfectly OK with me, why bother posting
your crap in here?
Why don't you use your time more productive, like recompiling your
statistics module?
