How can someone hate an OS?

Vista seems to have polarised many IT pro­fes­sion­als. Many IT Pros are avid haters of Vista. They con­stantly blog about how bad it is. They very sel­dom give con­crete exam­ples of why it is bad. When they do give exam­ples they are often links to other blogs writ­ten by peo­ple who hate Vista. These blogs are also often short of real exam­ples. I say to all of these peo­ple — get a life! It’s an OS. If you don’t like it there are plenty of oth­ers to choose from. Pick one and go with it. I use many OS’s on a daily basis. I hap­pen to like Vista and pre­fer it as a client OS but if I didn’t I wouldn’t spend an inor­di­nate amount of time com­plain­ing about it.

If you hate Vista leave a com­ment that has spe­cific exam­ples and let’s get a good debate going. Rants with­out exam­ples will be ignored.

Welcome

Wel­come to my blog. This is a con­tin­u­a­tion of the blog I started a cou­ple of years ago which can be found here. I finally decided it was too much work updat­ing the old blog which was just text uploaded into a web page.

The blog is mostly about Win­dows Vista and related issues but occa­sion­ally I’ll com­ment on other things that take my fancy.

Wel­come, and please feel free to com­ment whether good or bad.

Thanks for reading.
