      1: I believe the hardware companies, in some grand-scheme way, are behind the development of the bloatware that is Vista. Vista will fuel the drive for PC replacements, especially if XP is killed in July. Why is it that just about every PC on the market today only comes with Vista support?

      2: Microsoft has enough marketshare to weather the temporary bad press and loss of marketshare. It probably has had this planned from the beginning. If anything, Vista is probably doing better than planned. Once XP is off the shelf, it is going to be all the way with Vista. Sure OSX has gained a fair bit (and Linux a surprisingly only tiny bit), but at the end of the day, if the hardware manufacturers only support Vista, then corporates, and therefore all of us, will have Vista shoved down our throats whether we like it or not.
