"I have been testing Microsoft operating systems since Windows 95, and this is the buggiest OS I've seen this late in development," says Joe Wilcox, an analyst with Jupiter Research. "Look at the older operating systems, and by Beta 2 there is a stable foundation on which the [independent software vendors] can build. Right now, Vista is like a ship on stormy seas."

On a semi-related note. I once saw a machine that took, basically, 2 hours (not exaggerating) to startup because of all the adware that started when you logged in, and because the machine had 64MB of RAM.
I'm sure that somewhere someone has installed such bad software on a Win98 machine that they had to reboot every "5 sodding minutes."
But these horror stories are purely anecdotal, of course. They're funny though.
