Vista is the suck!

Actually I like it a good bit. It is by no means perfect, but I think it is a pretty damn good OS.

Edit - It should be noted that I am running Vista Ultimate and if you are running Vista Home, well, you're stupid!

I'd be interested to see how many people respond to this. I'm still waiting to upgrade. I'm afraid of change. And Bill Gates.

I should give a little back story. I have a buddy who is going over to Iraq for the second time. This time he wanted take a laptop, we couldn't find one without Vista on his budget. After hours of trying to convince the damn thing that it actually did have a DVD drive, and it constantly shutting itself down, we gave up and took it back. Long story short he had to deploy without a computer. SUCK.

If you bought a laptop that was bundled with Vista and it didn't recognize the DVD drive you either had a stupid Manufacturer problem or a hardware problem... neither of which would be Bill Gates problem.

But he is an easy target..... unrightfully so (at least lately).
