More Raves for Vista

The Fake Steve jobs is at it again - but this is a great article…
“We were talking about Vista. Beastmaster, Monkey Boy, throw in the towel. Vista is a disaster. By refusing to admit it, you’re just making it worse. You look clueless, out of touch. You look like IBM during those years when they kept insisting the whole world really was going to move to OS/2 long after everyone knew it wasn’t going to happen. Remember those days? Remember IBM putting out press releases talking about OS/2’s fantastic momentum? Remember how you guys at Microsoft used to laugh at IBM? I’d tell you to go look in the mirror, but we all know you don’t throw a reflection. But trust me. The ghost of Jim Cannavino is roaming the halls in Redmond.”

This time from Jim Louderback, the newly departed editor of PC Magazine, who uses his farewell column to do something I suppose he has wanted to do for ages — tell the truth about Vista. “Why, nine months after launch, am I so frustrated? The litany of what doesn’t work and what still frustrates me stretches on endlessly.” See here.

Then there’s this: “I could go on and on about the lack of drivers, the bizarre wake-up rituals, the strange and nonreproducible system quirks, and more. But I won’t bore you with the details. The upshot is that even after nine months, Vista just ain’t cutting it. I definitely gave Microsoft too much of a free pass on this operating system.”

Really? You think? Translation: Now that I’m no longer working at PC Mag, I can finally tell you the truth. Vista blows. Vista is a boat anchor. Vista paid my salary for the past few years, but now that I’m no longer sucking on the Redmond teat I’m going to play hero and tell you what I didn’t dare tell you before.
