"Mommy, it's broken." 2 weeks with Vista
,----[ Quote ]
| After 5 years of development, Vista still isn't ready for prime time.
| It's like taking a car without an engine and putting a new coat of
| paint on it. Sure it looks pretty, but it still doesn't work. I would
| wait at least 6 months if not a year to invest in Vista. In fact I
| personally will be putting XP on my laptop because Vista crashes too
| much for me to use everyday.
|
| This review doesn't take into account the DRM and anti-piracy
| issues that have been brought up by Vista. Without taking those
| into account I still wouldn't buy Vista.

Windows XP’s Repulsive “Hidden ToolTip” Bug… Fixed!
,----[ Quote ]
| Ever since Microsoft invented the Windows Shell with explorer.exe back in the
| days of Windows 95, there’s been a bug that’s gone from one version of
| Windows to the next; and with each upgrade it became worse and worse - until
| Vista where it only rears its ugly head every once in a while instead.
|
| Everyone that has used a Windows PC must have seen this bug before - it’s
| that ubiquitous (not that Microsoft would admit it for 10 long years):

Programs Cannot Be Uninstalled In Vista?
,----[ Quote ]
| Possibly after one of the latest updates in Windows Vista, two strange things
| happened: first, the Uninstall option is no longer available in the Control
| Panel when you right-click on older programs (most likely, those installed
| prior to the update in question, because uninstall works fine for recently
| installed programs — the Uninstall button is also missing on the toolbar at
| the top); second, some programs are no longer shown on the applications list
| in Control Panel (e.g., Yahoo Messenger).

| The SANS posting, and feedback we're hearing, suggests the problems some
| users are experiencing are more than these knowledge base articles might
| suggest but at least these postings provide a starting point for users before
| they refer outstanding issues they might still be having to Microsoft or
| their support partners.
