Time for a Vista Do-Over?

DigitalDame2 writes "'There's nothing wrong with Vista,' PC Mag editor-in-chief Lance Ulanoff tells a Microsoft rep at this year's CES. 'But you guys have a big problem on your hands. Perception is reality, and the perception is that Vista is a dud.' He goes on to confess that the operating system is too complex and burdened by things people don't need. Plus, Vista sometimes seems so slow. Ulanoff gives four suggestions for a complete Vista makeover, like starting with new code and creating a universal interface table. But will Microsoft really listen?"

    Where the fuck is Leopard 10.5.2? I don't give a shit about some obscure bug fixes for iWork '08 and iWeb. iHate Apple's PR-based software update schedule. How about pushing updates as they're finished instead of waiting for them to coincide with shipments of the MacBook HotAir?
