Because of my kindred hatred for Windows Vista I just read your entire article. Microsoft needs to worry about Google now more than ever. Google sees the future as having software that actually operates online. This way all computers regardless of OS can run the same programs. Google Chrome is far from perfect but Google has a tendency to listen to the customers. They also believe in pushing the envelope based on customer feedback, something Microsoft has forgotten. Have you also seen their horrible Seinfield ads by Microsoft.... they are way out of touch with the customer that buys their product?
My wife's laptop runs Vista and she hates it. It came preinstalled on her laptop from Dell. At first it seemed cool but now it is annoying. We were able to get it to print to our networked printer for about 2 months through the wifi. Her computer was updated by Windows and since then we haven't been able to get it to print. Beyond that I just hate it. I would rather go back to a Mac running OS X than use Vista. Next laptop I buy will probably have XP, or I will just berak down and go with the new paper thin Apple computer. The whole reason I still use windows is I am so comfortable with the Office XP products. I have used it over 10 years and it's like riding a bike. Excel, PowerPoint, Word, & Access are all part of my life. Adobe PS2 is also part of my life but has always ran better on a Mac. There's my 2 cents.
