Go To Hell Microsoft

the reason why they are calling it Windows 7 is that they can't call it "vista hopefully fixed edition". Vista has too much crap tied to the brand for it to work even again.

Why not fix the major flaws and call it Windows Vista SE?

from a marketing standpoint, that would be an unacceptable public admission of those flaws.

of course, from a different marketing standpoint, it would be a public acceptance AND redressing of said flaws.

Ugh, my head hurts from all the false statements made by Franky.

Okay, so I said some stuff that may or may not have been true about Windows, but I can at least say that from the calls I've received (I work for Dell Business Tech Support) is that far too many people have issues with Vista and I've heard customers tell me Vista sucks. That being said, I'm not gonna get it due to the issues it has.

note to self: stay away from dell

I am using Vista, no problems to speak of thus far. What are the major issues that people are complaining about (System requirements?)

Such as....? You're seriously not giving it a try because customers said it sucks? Vista isn't full of problems as people imagine.

Issues start with upgrading more often than not, but that's true with any OS out there, Windows or otherwise.

using vista for almost two years now, no issues that weren't caused by shitty early nvidia drivers...

you get your opinion of vista from the retards who need Dell tech support?

how stupid are you?

try it yourself, then form an opinion

and none of what you said was true.

Whatever you say...I could ask you the very same question. Did I call you stupid? No, I didn't and that doesn't give you the right to call me stupid, either. I thought this was a discussion about Windows and not a place to flame others..or was I mistaken?

sweener2001 · Post by **sweener2001** » Fri Oct 17, 2008 2:54 am

you're always mistaken, and that's the problem. and my right to call you stupid happens whenever you post the stupid.

i don't mind vista. the only thing i don't like are the specs. it performs fine now after SP1, and has only crashed on me once. and my computers don't get turned off.

i've used it, and i have my opinion. what about you? you're basing your opinion of vista on the opinions of people who (a)bought a dell and (b)are stupid enough to need dell's tech support.

and all this on top of your first post that was so full of fail that gil had break it down point by point.

neo_bahamut1985 · Post by **neo_bahamut1985** » Fri Oct 17, 2008 3:19 am

Whatever...I'll just stay from this post and ignore and screw the flaming insults.

Believe it or not, even idiots buy PCs too. It doesn't matter who buys it, but yet you will get dumb issues with dumb users most of the time (I'm not saying any newbie's at fault, but if you actually see the ratio of dumb to smart questions, you'll see what I mean). It happens here all the time.

It doesn't matter what OEM you work with, it happens all the time. This is not new. You'll find the same with Linux users too. This is a boatload of durrrrrrrrrrr written all over it.

sure, but basing an opinion on the people who are calling into a company's tech support?

neo_bahamut1985 · Post by **neo_bahamut1985** » Fri Oct 17, 2008 5:26 am

And then people I know (relatives) dissing it, so, I get it from both sides.
So what if my opinion is biased?
