An open letter to Bill Gates
,----[ Quote ]
| Dear Bill Gates
|
| Give me back my weekend. I bought a new Windows Vista laptop -- and
| that's when the trouble began.
|
| [...]
|
| But what really grates is that your system is incompatible with two
| of the vital tools of my trade. Vista refuses to load the software
| for my newish Olympus digital recorder. And here?s what takes the
| biscuit. Vista rejects my HP IPAQ handheld device ? even though the
| software for that was created by Microsoft!
|
| So in order to put Vista at the centre of what I do, I would have to
| buy hundreds of pounds of new hardware.
|
| [...]
|
| My conclusion? For all the expensive and much-extended gestation,
| Vista was not ready for commercial release. And, just so you know,
| I've never once had a comparably horrible experience with the
| Google boys.
