I'm not sure about flop, but it's something of a turd. I use it daily at work. I use XP at home. They both work fine though my XP is more stable, I can deal with Vista's little issues. I haven't had any terrible troubles with it. I'm sure SP1 will straighten out most of my troubles. I'm patient. I have a number of Vista users at well. Most of them don't seem to enjoy it too much. They tolerate it, but when I hear complaints, Vista is usually mentioned in there.
In theory an upgrade should offer a compelling reason to do so. I'm still trying to find that reason. Every couple of weeks I look at my XP machine and think "Is it time?" and always go "Nahhhhh". There just isn't much in it for me. For example the NT4/Win95 to 2000 upgrade was probably the most compelling upgrade ever. It's just kind of blah. I can take it or leave it. Like I said, not very compelling. -----Original Message----- From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2008 2:03 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Do Vista Users Need Fewer Security Patches Than XP Users? InfoWorld is crazy. Windows98 or WindowsMe were the biggest Windows-related flops. Vista is not a "flop" - it has just aggrivated a lot of people for various reasons including ease of use and driver releases. Im still reading the rest. This looks to be a very well thought article. I look forward to verifying yet another set of claims about Vista. :-) On Jan 31, 2008 4:33 PM, Eric E Eskam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Another good thought provoking article from Jesper: > > http://msinfluentials.com/blogs/jesper/archive/2008/01/24/do-vista-users-nee d-fewer-patches-than-xp-users.aspx > > Eric Eskam > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > The contents of this message are mine personally and do not reflect any > position of the U.S. Government > "The human mind treats a new idea the same way the body treats a strange > protein; it rejects it." > - P.
