more people say vista sucks big time...

I also happen to think Vista was a waste of money and I would not have
purchased it had it not been for the fact that my college required me to
upgrade to Vista in order to continue my online classes. What I don't really
understand is why the people who are in support of Vista have such a problem
with the people who don't like Vista. It's almost like the Vista supporters
think the rest of us don't have the right to voice our displeasure about
Vista. Let's face it, unless an individual has plenty of money to spend on a
whole computer upgrade or purchase a high end computer system (which, I
definitely do not) then Vista just sucks! But I guess some of the people who
are in favor of Vista and don't want the rest of us to voice displeasure
about it, do have plenty of money to make those expensive upgrades and
therefore feel that there is nothing to complain about.

I seriously doubt your college required you upgrade to Vista continue their
online courses. It may have been a suggestion, but requirment? Not a
chance.

So something sucks just because you can't afford it?

If we were talking about a Rolls, your snotty reply would make sense.
But, being as the OP is *required* to have it and because of Microsoft's
strong arm tactics with OEMs, MOST people will have to buy it, your post
is mere snotty superciliousness, nothing else.

Not snotty at all. Apparently the college require it, so what does that have
to do with OEMs. Plus, the fact that one can't afford a product doesn't mean
that the product sucks.

The operating system is no fun-Its repugnant-It takes all the enjoyment out
of using a computer.Since Microsoft is intent on shoving it down our throats,
I am simply going to install XP in this new computer and go on my merry
way.then i wont have to use windows defender(dont catch nothing) media player
10 which I love and window picture viewer(all optional on XP) and last but
not least Microsoft Fax and Picture viewer that XP has and Vista dont..
Its just a disgusting miserable computing experience.
It works alright-It just works lousy--
Ford Made The Edsel-Microsoft Made Vista
Just do like me if you dont like it--Get rid of it
I have to give Microsoft credit for putting up these posts-Maybe they want
to know how bad it really is..( they do)
Have a nice XP day

You're right of course. Vista sucks even if one can afford it. Affordability
doesn't determine the quality of an operating system at all.

Vista really doesn't suck. You just don't have a clue on how to use it.
Yes, it is a bit more complicated than DOS, so you just might need an
instructor to help you out.

You will find changing attitudes to Vista, and you will isolate yourself if
you continue to judge Vista as per when it was released..

You're certainly entitled to your opinion. It has worked fine for me
since the day I started using it. Of course, it had the standard bugs and
glitches that come with every operating system, including XP. That's to be
expected.

You stated "I remained silent so I would not hurt his feelings by
confirming this reality". Why did you remain silent? You are entitled to
your opinion and you should have stated it.

Windows Defender found Peergardions, malware (trojans and virus's) that
others did not pick up. BTW defender and IE7 and Windows Media Player 11
also work on XP.
You're statements are utterly false.
