| | if you ask for vista for christmas.... if you ask for vista for Christmas.... I have to warn you that it will not be Santa Claus that will be delivering the gift, but the Grinch! I bet he will love to see millions of unhappy users! Also if in your letter to Santa, you do not specify what OS you want for the computer you ask for in the letter, according to Murphy's law (whatever can go wrong will go wrong) you will boot up to see Vista and not XP! Be specific! ask for XP so you can have a merry Christmas!!! |

Please by all means feel free to put a valid discussion together about where you genuinely feel there are failings in the Window Vista products. Try hard not to use other unsubstantiated statements and give us your personal absolute diatribe on Windows Vista so that we may professionally and with appropriate measure critique it. -- Mike Brannigan |

| | Re: if you ask for vista for christmas.... Christmas came early for me. Windows Vista Ultimate RTM and Office 2007 Ultimate, from Microsoft for beta testing. Never looking back at XP again. In fact Vista is running so well, I upgraded my XP laptop to Vista. Heck it works even better on the laptop! Bill F.
