2. Comment - Five More Months Tacked Onto XP Availability Roadmap

   (Sep 29, 2007 - 1:19 AM)

   Vista. Let us see. Considerable to Great learning curve for anyone but somebody who has not used a computer in their life. A lot of hardware resources for just seating there. Great incompatibility with current programs. (Remember Windows XP had a compatibility mode).
   
   From my point of view a normal or light user would have no problem using Vista, right? Why would a normal user buy a behemoth of computer? Why would a normal user use the newest programs and have to search and search for every driver available for its hardware to make Vista run smooth on his or her pc?
   
   If XP was like Vista back on its day, is this what Microsofts accumulated to knowledge has come to? "Don't worry about user's ability of adoption for the new OS, let's make it our way!" Even Apples Mac OS is as pretty as Vista(has been for far more years).. almost as secure as Vista and far less resource intensive than Vista is.
   
   Most of us are techs who can afford to dig, look, search and experiment on our pcs. Is this fair for the normal user? Must he spend for his OS and his hardware just to be a little bit more impressed graphically and a bit more secure. Does this sound like a magnificent piece of software?
