    • Microsoft Succeeds in Making Vista Even Worse [view article]
      Stormbringer: "Yeah, I have a Mac for my kids, but I find it a hideous annoyance. I suppose it's okay as a toy, like Apple's other technology trinkets for the unwashed masses, but other than excellent marketing, Apple's got little to offer."

      Really? A hideous annoyance? In what way is it an annoyance? I am trying to understand how a UNIX based OS that offers everything Windows does and more on well designed hardware with absolutely no threat of viruses or malware can be deemed an annoyance.
      At the very least when Apple implements a feature it is well thought out and applied ie; Expose vs. Flip3D.
      I don't think that Vista is the abortion that it is being portrayed as and the complaints I have about it have more to do with it's actual use/implementation rather than lacking drivers etc. Microsoft makes UI choices based on research that is passed by committee and eventually "managed", not by solid usability research that is adhered to. Go read some of the posts over at minimsft.blogspot.com and you will see the employees complaining about this very subject.
