It won't cause me any headaches though because I won't use it. Also,
I'm fortunate not to need to depend on IT profs for support.
Others, however, aren't so fortunate (or unfortunate) and your comments
will apply to them.

Vista being bad for IT admins isn't really a reason not to use Vista.
In fact, if Vista did have something real to offer me I'd be willing
to use it and if it caused headaches for admins, too bad. At least
they'd have job security. I don't let no admins on my machine anyway
(thankfully I can do that!).

bad for IT admins.

Greg,
Can we agree that "IT administrators" is a very small subset of total
expected/planned users? I do understand your focus, but let's look at
this just a bit more broadly. Thanks.
Best,
