Vista "Wow"

Wow what??

Here's a good start--
http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...y/default.mspx opens
with "The hunt for drivers" Why does this need to be a hunt?? x64 has been
out for over a year, and MS can't even support OneCare. I have no active
outgoing firewall and only 2 antivirus programs even work with Vista 64
without major issues. Further, MS fails to warn users that "Vista
Compatable" programs will most likely not work on x64 computers if the
software requires hardware interface. MS has failed miserably with x64
processing, and previously made claims that Vista and MS Office would work
under the future x64. The latter is still unfulfilled in late Q1 of 2007 of
a release origianally due for Q3 of 2006. The result is a bucnch of x64
processors with limited capability due to the claims of MS. I figure by the
time MS releases enough code for me to get the 3 security basic programs;
firewall, antivirus, and anti-spyware, that my current processor will be
out-dated as it's already one year old.
