I'm tempted to say that opinions, such as the above, no longer need
citing, since it is patently obvious by now that Vista is a lemon, and
no one in his right mind would touch it with a bargepole. However, it
*does* need to be said, over and over and over again, because once you
stop reminding people of how bad Microsoft's products are, and how
corrupt Microsoft is, that's when it all gets swept under the rug, and
the well oiled MS PR (FUD/spin) machine crawls out of its hole.
