Vista Haters Get Punk'd

When I bought my computers, I had a few people tell me to steer clear of Vista. I decided to give it a shot anyway. In my case, I haven't had Vista problems - knock wood.

But then comes this story. Microsoft gives it a new name then lets haters try it out.

Whaddayaknow? They like it!

Let me start off by saying I did not get Punk'd- but i want to set the record straight... at the risk of great flamage...
Ok so Vista works for you. You were lucky. The "Mojave" losers were working on computers optimized to run Vista...errrr "Mojave". They key word being optimized. What did Microsoft do over the last 18 months since Vista's release? They worked with vendors correcting driver flaws so printers, mics, cameras...etc would work with Vista. What a concept.
Microsoft releasing a new OS is a major event for computer users since they have something like 85% of the market share. My gripe was that Microsoft urged users to upgrade then when the tidal wave of negativity rolled in (atop the mega $$$$$$'s) because XP users found their systems unusable, Microsoft says they made a mistake.
Yes, Microsoft has FINALLY made the corrections and Vista is a usable OS .... but they should have waited on the release and made it user friendly. Not user unfriendly.
