Talkbacks: The Worst Microsoft Products Ever Produced
MOST RECENT OF 3 TALKBACKS
VISTA
Pure junk. Vista is NOT user-friendly. It is cranky, stubborn, abusive, condescending, patronizing. The system WILL NOT multi-task. The most common notification that appears in the title bar says ( "Program Not Responding" ). The system can be jammed and hung simply by over-clicking any icon. The "Ctrl+Alt+Del" WILL NOT CLEAR the jam most of the time. The OFF button must be used to turn off the computer so you can reboot. Items that open and start quickly in XP take too long in Vista. Opening a folder on the desktop can sometimes make you wait as long as 2 minutes. The "activity light" blinks furiously, but you never really know just why. The system seems "too busy" to interact with you all too often. You feel as though perhaps you should have made an appointment!! Although many programs run in the background, it is incredibly easy to stall the system by trying to run "too many" user programs... such as e-mail, a browser, a solitaire card game, and perhaps a security scan simultaneously. Vista simply cannot handle the workload. ~ ~ I run 2 XP systems real-time along with a Vista system real-time and XP walks all over Vista 100% of the time. Vista is anemic, lethargic, and seems to be totally uninterested in the fact that you are trying to GET THINGS DONE. It has its priorities and they do not coincide with YOURS, so "tough luck pal". You feel like you are part of a leper colony. Vista barely acknowledges your existence most of the time. ~ ~ OK, it does work, but badly. It is simply "too confused", it seems. It always appears to be trying to catch up with whatever you are doing, but forgot how (but won't admit it). So, it makes a half-hearted attempt to get the job done and barely makes it. ~ ~ Vista is nothing but pure aggravation. The design engineers should be consigned to a life-time of using nothing BUT Vista for having the marked lack of intelligence when it came to even designing the thing (6 YEARS ???). My advice, stick with XP. Indefinitely.

Windows 7
I hope Windows 7 will not follow their descendant Vista + Win Me. I still like my XP.

I'm for Vista
Hi David,
I like the Vista.
I used it for 4 month and i didn't make me any problem yet.
I recommend Vista over all the OS i had.
