Vista doesn't suck: OEM's crapware sucks!

Nope vista does suck, even without crapware and bad drivers vista sucks..
Perhaps vista sucks so much that it gets bogged down when you start
installing stuff...
its already slow after a clean install.. imagine now building on top of that
bloat...
it sucks by design and no service pack will ever fix it. Vista sucks sucks
sucks

In May 2007, this 15-year Windows veteran replaced his old, beloved,
XP-powered Vaio with a newer Vaio that came with Windows Vista Business
installed. Practically overnight, he told me, his experience went from
"awesome" to "awful." The experience was so terrible, in fact, that after
several months of struggling he finally surrendered, putting his $2500
Windows notebook in storage and replacing it with a MacBook last summer.

At first glance, Jeremy's machine is Exhibit A in the case against Windows
Vista. As Jeremy documented in a series of posts, this gorgeous machine was
ugly in action: slow to start, sluggish when performing everyday tasks,
crash-prone, and overloaded with annoying and unwanted software. But is it
really a hopeless case, or was this system done in by the rush to market and
a sloppy OEM integration?

After he sent me his Vaio in early March, I blew away all traces of the old
installation and set up a pristine copy of Windows Vista Business, with
up-to-date drivers and zero crapware. This screen shot shows the blizzard of
dialog boxes and icons that are part of the original, unpleasant experience.
The initial results were eye-opening and impressive. After my makeover, this
machine was every bit as fast as its specs said it should have been.

Vista doesn't suck. But when you shovel Windows Vista and a mountain of
poorly chosen drivers, utilities, and trial programs onto that beautiful
hardware without thinking of the customer, the results can be downright
ugly. That was certainly the case with the early-2007 vintage Vaio, and it's
still true today, with too much crapware and not enough attention to quality
or the user experience.

I used to buy VAIOs a while back. While they do come with quite a bit a
crapware, there are far worse companies for that, and the Sony website has
an excellent way of just getting what you need on a fresh installation.
