Consumer Group Demands XP for Vista Victims

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the more-poison-is-the-cure dept.

thefickler writes "Dissatisfaction with Windows Vista seems to be swelling, with the Dutch Consumers' Union (Consumentenbond) asking Microsoft to supply unhappy Vista users with a free copy of Windows XP.
