Vista disappointment, bug, and fiasco stories are so many and so common (even
those publicised on the Web every hour of the day) that they have almost
become a bore. It's no longer a challenge to show that Vista is innately
broken, but every now and then, Slashdot will pick another classic example.
Most recently it was the 'out of memory'/copy bug, which I think was spotted
about 8 months ago. There are many bugs that are associated with simple I/O,
not even scheduling or more cosmetic things.
Vista gets it wrong even where crucial data -- the user's bread and butters --
is concerned. The EULA says it's all part of the deal and Microsoft holds no
liability. It figures.
