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.

It's Microsoft's operating system, they can do whatever they like with it. Stop whining about it.

It is my hardware, or in the case of millions of other innocent people who have purchased gear in good faith ... it is their hardware. They too have a right to expect it to work how they would want it to, and a reasonable expectation that it should work with other gear that they have also purchased in good faith.

Stop defending Microsoft's efforts to rip people off.

How about you start complaining to the hardware manufacturer? That's where your beef is. Stop using your anti Microsoft rhetoric to bash Microsoft for things that it is not responsible for. Vista betas (and alphas) were out for at least 2 years prior to the final Gold release of Vista in March 2007 - if hardware and software developers had gotten off their good for nothing lazy asses, they'd have realised that they need to update their products to work with Vista. Period. Gee...
