Windows Forbes takes a look at Vista, and writes: "More than five years in the making, more than 50 million lines of code. The result? A vista slightly more inspiring than the one over the town dump. The new slogan is: 'The Wow Starts Now', and Microsoft touts new features, many filched shamelessly from Apple's Macintosh. But as with every previous version, there's no wow here, not even in ironic quotes. Vista is at best mildly annoying and at worst makes you want to rush to Redmond, Wash. and rip somebody's liver out." They also look at Office 2007.

It's called freedom of the press, first amendment

If you're American that is.

No I am not "American", I am from the Uk, so your 1st amendment is useless here.

Also, your 1st amendment is also worthless on loads of "Americans", ie, Canadians, Mexicans, Brazilians, Argentines, Bolivians etc etc

"Americans" none the less....

yes, but those people do not call themselves americans, they call themselves canadians, mexicans, barzilians, etc..

forbes is an american publication, i'm sure your gov't can prevent it from being sold there, but they have no control over what forbes prints, the same way that america has no control over the media that comes from any other country.

I also might add I disagree with your comment, however won't mod you down like I assume you did to my post. I don't agree with modding down for differences in opinion, as it is not on the list of reasons to mod down.
