Vista - Install Issues Vista Beta

This is a help group, not a chat room. He didn't ask for any help. He should
have posted his gripes elsewhere!

Do you know what a troll is? His post certainly fits the description of a
trolling post, one that just is there to gather responses at all costs.

This is not the place.
