Don’t Buy Vista

“The shipping version of this OS is late beta, at best.” -Chris Pirllo - Key Windows Advocate.
“It’s an absolute travesty that Microsoft would have released such a half-baked product.” -Jason Busch
Chris Pirllo pushed for Vista during it’s launch, and then moved back to XP*.
Christ tried it out, and came out with a long list of Vist Woes. (I find it quite funny)
Not many positive reviews are out there about Vista - and those that are, aren’t raving. (Example)
Brian Heys found his first weekend with vista an “irritating experience.” He later went as far as to reccomend that is readers don’t buy vista.
Jeff Ventura claims that Vista buzz “borders on nonexistent.”
So tell me, why would someone want to buy Vista?
Vista is actually not to bad. We’ve been messing around with it for a month or so now at work and have had zero issues. A lot of it comes down to user error I think. A lot of patches and security updates are released and the average user just doesn’t realize which in turn hurts their system. It’s good if you know what you’re doing all say that, if not, then it’s not too good and that’ show it gets it’s bad name. Although, one could make the argument that you shouldn’t need to update an OS so much and that it should have been better from the start and I agree with that.
