Windows Technologizer has an interesting article about why Windows Vista failed, and it provides 16 reasons why this is the case. A few of those reasons reveal a certain lack of understanding, but a more pressing issue is that while listing these reasons individually is interesting, Vista's failure in the marketplace can be explained in a much more compact fashion.

Granted, I've thrown 12 GB at it, but Vista SP2 x64 is rock solid, blazingly fast and highly usable. Not sure if I really need the extra eye-candy in Windows 7 quite yet.
