Vista, for Better and Worse
,----[ Quote ]
| But for most people with older machines, Vista demands too much to
| justify its benefits. If you fall into that category, you're better
| off upgrading XP by adding third-party programs -- for instance,
| Google Desktop, the Firefox Web browser, Thunderbird mail program
| and the Picasa photo album -- to paper over XP's deficiencies. Wait
| for Microsoft to fix the inevitable bugs in Vista and for Windows
| developers to rewrite their software to work better in Vista.

No mentioning of the fact that Vista is considered illegal in Europe.
Customer's right are not being defended; rather, they get abused.
