Yesterday, January 30th 2008 marked the first anniversary of Windows Vista. A year ago when Windows Vista was initially made available to public, it was heavily criticized by the media mostly because it required hardware upgrade on most PCs and some hardware drivers were not available. Nonetheless, Microsoft has sold over 100 million copies of Windows Vista till date.
Here’s a birthday cake for Windows Vista:

What percentage of those sales are OEM sales? I know quite a few people (I can think of 4 people that have mentioned it to me within the past two days) who have gotten Vista merely with a new computer and didn’t want it and now hate it. My dad also was in that predicament, and after many problems switched to Ubuntu. Most people that use Vista were probably forced into just because of a regular computer upgrade, not because they necessarily wanted it.

Jake: True! I’m one of those forced Vista users. I had XP when I purchased my laptop, but HP gave me a free upgrade to Vista. Couldn’t resist the upgrade since it was tempting. Repenting now!

Congratulations to Vista Team!
Hopefully this year, they can make some much needed improvements to their OS!

Vista is like a human kid. She is one and yet she can’t do much without her parent’s help.

I tried ordering a PC from Dell and told them I didn’t want Vista. I have it on my home PC and a laptop — its a bloated, slow moving pig. I upgraded RAM on both machines to make it work. Many features don’t work on my reasonabley new Dell laptop because the video card won’t drive it. Vista is a major dissapointment - especially after 4 to 5 years. Steve Balmer has none of the innovativness that Bill Gates had in his early years. Hold onto your copy of XP Pro.
