Not looking too good is it? Didn't Microsoft actually state Vista was
the most secure OS ever far less the most secure Windows?
It is clear already, even though Vista adoption has been poor due to
lack of HW drivers, apps not supported and instability, Vista is just
another bug riddled version of Windows. I'll bet Microsoft are forced
to extend the deadline for OEM's offering XP.
