Either some NSPs are treating posts in a non-standard way, or Micro$haft is sneaking in some new "features" to get us to switch to Vista (because XP is so "buggy"). In this case, the "indentation problem" only affects responses to posts made via Google Groups. Normally I use OE, just because I prefer the way it

Interview: We sabotaged vista on purpose!
I got so fed up with Vista, I removed it and put XP back on and my system just flies. Maybe when SP1 comes out, I might give it another try if I have a weekend to waste, but to be productive, XP is my answer now. Microsoft really screwed up on this one. So you are actually disappointed in Vista?

Considerably more so, for several reasons, not least of which is that the sort he posts appears to be a distro-specific (or perhaps, KDE release-specific) issue, for starters... Then, of course, there's always the question of the tool being used and how it's being used; IIRC, it was doing a lexicographical sort,

Microsoft's positioning of Vista is so confusing it's hard to know just which version you'll actually get with a new machine - the last time I looked, Microsoft has notoriously missed their product ship dates and continues to push the Vista dates back. If they do ship on time, expect a buggy, quirky,

Why are so many people threatened by Vista?
For Vista, they broke all old stuff. So old hardware, and stuff like that, is not working under Vista. Compare that with Linux where open source means that old drives can be adapted to kernel changes etc. I believe that a lot of Windows security holes is the result of this compatibility with nonfree software

Vista so unpopular that Dell reinstates the XP option
I am not aware of any current PCs coming with free or inexpensive upgrades from XP to Vista. Coming up next quarter: Fear of Vista. So far it has proven to be buggy, insecure, and a resource hog. Part of the expected backlash may well be demand that PCs continue to ship with Windows XP, which has had more time to
