What in the world was Microsoft thinking......

What in the world was microsoft thinking putting this on the market. What is
worst is why companies like Acer who have not trained their people on vista
are putting it on their freshly built system and fools like me purchase one.
I spent good hard earned money that was by the very blood and sweat of my
husband who works 80 hour weeks to purchase and pay our bills. Our old
system died and we bought into the hype of Best Buys how great this was
Bull and Capital BULL. We live pay check to pay check...my retirement is a
nightmare and you aren't making things any easier.....

Mr. Gates have you ever had to choose between working part-time online and
trying to pay for your medical and buying software because the companies you
work for insist on the new crap you have out? Have YOU?

I had problems from day one and I start going on a merry-go-round with
microsoft best buy and acer. Microsoft said I needed to go back to the
manufacture, went to Acer and they said to go to Best Buy's, because they
have not been trained on Vista, and Best buys sent me back to Microsoft.
When do I get off, it is making me dizzy!?!

1. I was told from square one that my office pro xp would work with the
system. That is only partically correct.

2. I was told by Acer they were forced into putting this and imprint vista
on the motherboards so no one who bought any of their machines could go back
to a former operating system, Why?

3. Most of the office programs out there do not work well with Vista. The
program is so large you have to have a 2 to 3 gig memory to run the darn
thing. It does not play well with others!!!!!!!

4. I am now told that Microsoft will shortly not even talk to anyone with
less than a Microsoft office 2003 or better on their machines even in paid
tech support. I got that from two of your senior techs Mr. Gates.

5. I am handicapped and I cannot work...that is no one problem according to
your staff from overseas who are insensitive and rude. They treat people
like crap and we are suppose to tolerate it and pay for it at the same time.

6. I can not afford to go out and buy new office software and that is a
fact and God himself can back me up. Want to donate I doubt that in the
highest respect I can give you.

Why?I was once promised from one of your top people to send me Expressions
Web and they sent me a copy that does not work correctly. They promised to
resend it out. Well it has been a year and I still haven't seen it
Mr........I email you recently about it.

Why did he send me a free copy, because I was insulted by a member of your
staff while the supervisor was listening. I was called stupid and treated
like dirt and called other names.

7. My office Pro xp stopped working yesterday for the third time. Had to
reinstall it again. How many more times will this happen with Vista?

Well Mr. Gates you got a great company and I have stuck by you through all
of the past 20 years and never felt you did me wrong, but over the past two
years I have been changing my mind about Microsoft.

Can you really afford to throw your customers under the bus so to speak and
just walk away?

How many times can you do this before people just stop believing in
Microsoft and start going else where?

You got some problems to resolve and I got some serious thinking to do.

If you want to talk to me, I am listening. But I can guarntee you I will
never have these issues addressed by microsoft. That is why they have the
perveribal carpet to sweep any unpleasantness under the carpet. I may no
longer hold a job but I am not stupid, being handicapped does not create a
lesser person. Your staff seems to think so.

This is a peer newsgroup. Bill Gates does not read it, neither is he
responsible for untruths passed on by Acer or the dealer from which you
bought the machine..

If you want a decent office suite, you can download Open Office for free,
get templates and other stuff for it, all free..

Your Acer will run Ubuntu. It's free and comes with Open Office, also
free. Not only that, you don't need 2 gigs of memory. One will do just
fine :-) In addition, it comes with access to over 23,000 FREE programs
and is bullet proof compared to Windows in regards to viruses, malware,
root kits and DRM. It does not need to be activated or become "genuine".
Order the CD or download it and burn the image to a CD. You can then go
into your BIOS and set it to boot from the CD first and test drive
Ubuntu without installing it to see how you like it.

Get it at http://www.ubuntu.com/

Oh, and ignore "FB". He is the most disgusting troll I have ever seen on
Usenet and I've been using Usenet since 97.

I don't. My point was that Mike doesn't either. Your reading
comprehension problem is raising its ugly head again.

No.

I obviously do.

Not a requirement to post here. Heck, I'm not even posting from Windows,
much less Vista.

The fact that you can't point out one single lie doesn't stop you from
posting lies, now does it, troll?

We know that.

My point was that Mike doesn't either.

We all knew that.

No you obviously don't. As everyone has at one time or another asked you
to leave.

There are no *requirements* to post here. But the sign says *Vista*, and
normal people understand that to mean this ng is about helping people
with any problems they might be having with Vista.
You on the other hand, hate MS/Vista and are a known and admitted lying
linux troll.

Heck, I'm not even posting from Windows,

Duh!

Oh, here we go again! You must be suffering from dementia. Try google,
(if you know how) and you'll find all of your past lies are archived
there. I've put them in your face numerous times in the past. You're
sick in the head and that is quite evident.
