Ubuntu frustrates but Vista angers

| Maybe I have to mess around in Ubuntu to get around DRM centric formats like

| really made me cringe and I'll probably install XP to get on with any
| Windows-oriented work tasks in the future.

Vista the joy of my life.

| That of course is not so surprising, Microsoft opted for having a process

| The moral of the story... If you feel lonely and need some real AI deciding
| when you need a new feature... then embrace Vista.

Chicks dig RAM

| processor to see three sit idle and one sit at 20% load. That would just be a

Some people just assume that everyone can buy a new PC or upgrade. Sounds like
suits from Redmond that build a $5000 touchscreen PC.
