Blog: Should Microsoft Throw Away Vista?
,----[ Quote ]
| Throw Vista away. That's what many have now argued that Microsoft should do.
| Give it a dignified resting place, as a stepping-stone OS, and come up with a
| replacement that's more sensible for enterprise IT. There is historical
| precedent in the consumer OS space for such a move; look at Windows ME and
| how it became a footnote in Microsoft history.
|
| "Microsoft should toss Vista in the trash, as the company did with Windows
| Millennium eight years ago, then issue a Windows XP Second Edition (as it did
| with Windows 98 eight years ago) that capitalizes on some of Vista's key
| benefits.

At least it's called "Trash" and not "My Trash". They should rename
Vista "Windows XP Trash Edition", which can be upgraded to "Home Edition" for
a fee (OEMs wrongly call this 'downgrade' because Microsoft forced them to).
