Windows Windows Vista is everyone's favorite tech punching bag, and not without reason. But the reviled operating system has some amazing potential and with some tweaks and a few utilities, you can do what Redmond didn't: make Vista great.

same as you, blue. i never had any trouble getting support for windows problems (ok, i run osx and haven't run windows for a few years).

please note i said windows support, and nothing more than that. i never said all companies have high quality support or drivers. but the 3rd party drivers are a lot better than the foss drivers (i'm still waiting for working 3d video card drivers for my hardware).

but could you please point out a hardware manufacturer who does not support windows? really, humor me. intel? amd? nvidia? hp? iiyama? apc? even apple supports windows. maybe you should ask theo de raadt about how much companies support foss.

it's really sad people are not capable of realizing 90+% of the people run windows in this world. it's not the way i want it either, but at least i understand it.
