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.

At least Microsoft itself seems to think so. The real version number of Win7 is 6.1. Vista was/is version 6.0. Why would MS want to dissociate Win7 from Vista if not out of a fiasco feeling?
Strangely, MS does not think the same about its Server line of Windows products. Vista for servers is called Windows Server 2008, while the Win7-based Server release is called Windows Server 2008 R2.
