Statements of Windows fanboys that we are supposed to make head or tail out of:
1. Microsoft makes the software, others make the hardware. It is not Microsoft's fault if the hardware guys don't have appropriate support for the software.
2. It is, however, Linux OS' fault if it isn't appropriately supported by the hardware.
3. Apple should sell the software without bundling it with the hardware because as you can see in the first point, that model works so very well.
Madness, I say.

Read what I said again Winboy.
And this time read the whole thing including the justification for the statement, desperation shown not by me, by you by only reading the statement and not the justification for the statement. Get alive BTW, the bottom line is, Vista is a failure considering what M$ falsely portrayed it to be, and unfortunately I'm not the only person in the world who has that opinion

Lolz...desperation at the max.
What do u do one a computer??? I don't know about you but this is what I do on Windows Vista based new workstation I recently got.
1) Online work such as EMail, browsing etc.
2) My Professional work which includes 3Ds Max, Photoshop CS3, Illustrator CS3, Microsoft Blend & Adobe After effect
3) Games
4) HTPC using Pinnacle PCV Tuner kit for Vista & the supplied PCTV WMC Remote, for TV, Movies, DVDs, VCD, downloaded videos.
5) Music Jukebox. I just connect any friend's Mobile Phone or PMP & WMC plays songs from it automatically either over USB or Bluetooth
6) What else can I do on my PC...hmm, let me know something I can do...
So yeah, we can do whatever we want using Windows Vista.

Already answered, read post#24, why do you winboys make me keep repeating this?
where's the hardware which this conversation is all about? Once again, @gx's unsuccessful attempt of trying to divert the topic
BTW, if there was something Vista couldn't do for what it portrayed to being able to do, there wouldn't be lawsuits against them about things like Vista capable when it was incapable!
I'm repeating myself once again:

intresting article.
@grudge: fully agree there. Vista still looks unpolished, but even SP1 is taking its own time.
@raven(regarding first post of yours): talking about paying for changing wallpaper, do you remember that Macintosh was notorious for asking its users to "Pay" to watch videos in Full Screen ? Only quick time pro could view videos in fullscreen, and you had to buy it seperately. But I don't know about the current situation.
lets put this in the News Club

Vista Runs fine on my machine,looks good coz GUI is very cool but a bit user-unfriendly with many yes or no dialog boxes.I find Vista to be Gr8 if it stops giving BSOD's due to 4 gig RAM.I have to remove a 2GB stick b4 installing vista which causes me to tear my hair off!!
i'm running Vista since it has RTM'ed.and since then i've had only 2 BSOD.and with XP i had lots.i've never looked back to XP for all my computer needs.never had any driver issue,watever was needed was downloaded from Windows Update.
now if some1 installs vista on incompatible hardware and cries foul then is it MS' fault??
why dont u use Vsiat x64 if u use 4GB ram.even i use Vista 64-bit on my pc and 32bit on my lappy.

i also causes crashes at installation
2GB is enuf. for running vista IMO
but for me it hs never crashed when installing with 4GB of system ram.ran it with Q6600 on XFX 680i and P5B Dlx.no prb at all.
ahv u enabled the Memory Remap Feature with all the 4 dimms populated?
and yes 2GB in Dual Channel mode is ok for Vista.

IMHO, the method of campaigning about Vista Capable and Vista Premium PC itself was bad. Also just like XP, Microsoft could have released 3 versions of Windows Vista rather than launching 5. IMHO Home Premium, Business and Enterprise would have been much more simple than complicating the versions.The Hardware and Software markets are both inter dependent on each other.M$ blaming Intel for incompatible drivers and nVIDIA blaming M$ for software incompatibility offers no help to end users who are the worst affected.And saying Linux is bad as it supports no drivers literally $ucks. Every OS has its share of $hits and g00ds.

Statements of Windows fanboys that we are supposed to make head or tail out of:
despite of betas if people cant release appropriate drivers then its not MS to be blamed MS
free advise that can be ignored: stick to ur mac world
no 1 has blamed linux for, the reason why linux doesnt have drivers is because its just not considered worth wasting time upon
i find no reason why apple cannot come up with a legal version of os x that would work on pc

1. Only reason there are no drivers for Vi$ta is that its just rushed. They brought it too quickly into the market.Statements of Windows fanboys that we are supposed to make head or tail out of:

2. keep your Pi$$ta to yourself but leave linux alone. Its far too superior, and thanks to the potential it has, there are tonnes and tonnes of developers working on making it compatible with every hardware. Infact, companies like AMD are being forced to concider linux, as its the only way they can remain alive in the market.
3. If mac is released for PC, the sales of Macintosh PCs will drop by over 80%, as nobody will need to buy expensive computers anymore to run a few apps. So its not a logical move for apple to release a version of Macintosh OS for the PC. Doing so will be like suicide.

Longhorn beta was given to developers in year 2003, they had lots of time to make drivers.
Post reported, why do u get irked if someone blames Linux? Is Linux your GF or Wife???

And why should they, when there is hardly any potential for the OS that has been proved ?
