OT - Vista crack
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'm mixed on this one a little but because while I do see the need to keep supporting older technology,

I got fed up with the Thunderbird news reader (slow, buggy, poor filters) and installed my old favorite Gravity. It works fine with Vista, as generic Windows programs usually do.

Hmm ... service revenue is best maximized by having a buggy OS that is difficult and temperamental to use, so that a constant flow of service calls comes in for it.
