I was aghast. At every boot up we got a error message saying there was a program compatibility issue with a driver, the mouse pointer jumped all over the screen and actual mouse clicks happened randomly, Explorer kept losing the view settings, Windows Media Player crashed on a regular basis, even his brand new scanner (HP PHOTOSMART 3310) didn’t really work… In short, his computer was a total and utter mess.Together, we pulled all-nighter and reverted back to XP. Productivity : 100% restored!It appears that Vista have some serious compatibility problems. I admit I wasn’t looking forward to Vista. Remember how much the earlier version of Windows XP (SP1) sucked? If all of your hardware and software are fully baked, you’re good to go—but it will take the hardware and software developers a good year (or two) to make it all works. Moral of this story : Don’t be tempted to use Vista as it is now. It is more of eye-candy than worthy.Also, a song pimp as to render this post as not brain-numbingly boring and pointless, because it’s pretty.

“Future Fix Notifications. […] A crash isn’t so bad if you know it’s going to be fixed.”

One of the top ten features of Vista is psychological help for crash victims!
WOW! Where can I buy that?

[...] ”Sorry, I… I gave Vista a real chance. I just can’t use it as my primary OS anymore. It’s NOT horrible at its core (by any stretch of the imagination). If all of your hardware and software are fully baked, you’re good to go – but that’s not the world I live in. I will continue to recommend Windows Vista for some users, mind you. I wish I could take the best parts of Vista and bring them back with me to XP. I’m still more than willing to help Microsoft improve Windows and get the message out to users, but I simply can’t sacrifice my own time and productivity without benefits in clear sight. I’m begging Microsoft and all of my hardware and software vendors to make Windows better for me. Until then… [...]

OK, I like too, but…
Start Menu’s Start Search: Search functionality simply does not works. Mos of the times Search does not find the file I’m looking for. The beta version of Desktop search released by August’06 for XP was infinitely most accurate (and fast).
Windows Explorer’s Details Pane: Yes, it’s cool, but many times the info that appears in it is partial and messy, and many times when you click in the Details Pane the window does not become active and you have to click again in the Title bar.
Windows Explorer’s Folders Pane: Favorites pane is cool, but the explorer tree does not works. Many times, when you click in the damned triangle the left pane becomes irresponsible (the right pane works ok, but as the cursor has became the clock one you many pepople does not try it).

Lol the funniest thing about this article is that you’re expecting it to crash. I mean come on, that isn’t highlight at all, it shouldn’t be crashing at all. This is yet another time when microsoft shows off how sloppily they put together there operating systems. 4 of these (2,6,9,10) have been on the mac os since the release of os x10. I think the best thing about Windows Vista is the smooth transition from the mac app “Widgets” to “Gadgets”, i bet they thought no one would notice, especially since they are identical.
I think the folling site almost does justicee to it: http://www.qj.net/windows-vista-is-looking-like-mac-/pg/49/aid/55832

[...] Sheryl Canter continues: Forget iLife – have you taken a look at Spotlight? Windows can take 20 minutes to search my hard disk. Spotlight does it instantly, as you type. You can search far more flexibly using just the graphical UI, but if you’re willing to do some scripting your search criteria can be ANYTHING (this but not that, etc.). On top of all that, you can save your searches as smart folders that dynamically update (for example, all documents modified in the last week). And that’s just one example of the coolness hidden inside a Mac running OS X. The Mac manages to brilliantly combine ease of use with serious power. I didn’t think it was possible. The power is hidden so as not to confuse, so if you’re a PC user booting a Mac for the first time, you might think it’s no big thing. Don’t write it off so fast – buy a book.
