Vista

I worked on 3 customer machines today. All 3 had Vista installed, and were otherwise very nice machines. But if working on 3 Vista machines in one day isn't equivalent to a day in Hell, it surely must be equivalent to a day in Purgatory. Microsoft's Vista is an abomination, and I am thrilled that as of this coming Thursday no one will be sold a new machine with Vista on it.

If you are lucky enough to have an XP machine, keep it running and hang onto it as long as you can.

If you need to buy a new machine, from all accounts I have read the new Windows 7, available on new machines starting Thursday, 10/22, is much better. Even if you have to be a pioneer and be one of the first users, you should be better off.
