Microsoft is the only company that can acquire a worldwide monopoly of
IBM-compatible operating systems by selling a bag of bugs.
I have collected many photographic examples of the various bizarre
behaviours of Vista. The latest was to use the search, and to be told
that in this "conversation" my request to find a word on the page is
forbidden.
One bug delivered a file-size of MINUS a billion bytes. I have the
exact number recorded. File size is evaluated by Function 66,
subfunction 2. So the bugs go deep into the system level.
They keep making "Updates" which they do not test. The latest count is
49:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/results.aspx?freetext=Updates&productID=8D7DD8D7-1CA6-4632-BAEF-E7C0750ED02E&categoryId=&period=&sortCriteria=date&nr=20&DisplayLang=en
I will divide that URL up, so that if it does not all arrive as a
single "string", you can string it together, and rebuild it:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/results.aspx
?freetext=Updates&productID=8D7DD8D7-1CA6-4632-BAEF-E7C0750ED02E
&categoryId=&period=&sortCriteria=date&nr=20&DisplayLang=en
NONE OF THE UPDATES WORK.
Here is the reason:

That's right. They have discovered that Vista computers have an
"inconsistency" which prevents "Updates" being "configured". Here,
however, they call it "installation".
People download this "Readiness Tool", only to discover that their
system will not install it because it is not "ready".
Notice also, that this is quite a wide-reaching bug. It prevents the
successful installation of service packs and software in addition to
updates.

That was a separate attempt to enable "Updates" by means of "Updates"
- like driving a car without fuel to fetch fuel.
When people are displeased with their sloppiness, they turn to HEAVY
PRESSURE to force their products upon the world.
This company is supposed to have about 500 BILLION dollars. Yet its
output is like that of some third world company.
