I'm looking forward to getting this when it comes out - but only if it lives up to the initial promises!

The window focus problem is daft - something fundamentally wrong if they can't get that right?

In Linux, well in Suse, you move the mouse over a window and that becomes the focused window, move it to another and vola, took a little getting used to it, but was great ... I do the same in Windows and I'm buggered, I have to 'click' the window.

I'm going to start calling Vista, Vista ME (Mangled Edition) ...

Oh come on guys it will be launched with a fanfare, bill gates smiling, everyone saying how good it is and then a month or two later everyone will be complaining about all the bugs. As for calling it Vista ME i think thats about right.

Will i buy it of course, but not until service pack 2 comes out
