The rest is equally angry. You can just about imagine how close the person is
to throwing the PC outside the Windows. What a disaster Vista has been...

| Vista is so hell bent on protecting you from yourself that it has rendered

| As a technology journalist, I need to test software on different operating

| Vista has certainly been slow out of the gate. Sure, Microsoft is putting the

Interesting comment from CompUSA
,----[ Quote ]
| Every single one of them he said was returned from consumers... and that they
| (CompUSA) couldn't ship them back. As he heard, Microsoft wasn't giving
| credit back for unsold or returned copies... and didn't want the returned
| figures made public... He wouldn't say that every single one of them
| exchanged for a copy of Xp, he didn't know if that was true. So, I asked how
| many boxes did they have. Same glare, followed with a "You do not want to
| know" type statement.
