Aww, how cute. A little fish trying to swim with the big boys. I'm sure you may do well in your little corner of the world... but dont expect 3.2 billion dollar infusions any time soon. ^_^
Open Office FTW.
It was pretty bad paying an arm and a leg for their proprietary software before, now you can't even own the software it seems, but only "borrow" it.
Boo.
Let me rephrase, of the Vista Customer's I have worked with, 90% of them have stated that they hated vista.
As far as the technical support side, I don't support Vista, just their "internets":P And usually the reason they don't like vista is because it runs so darn slow, and for strange reasons it plays magic tricks with people's NIC around windows update time =D
I don't know anyone that bought vista unbundled with any hardware, but I think it is interesting to note that of all the customers I provide technical support for, nearly 90% of them have all stated how much they hated vista.
The consumers speak for themselves. Maybe they should be given a choice as well. Though, given the current trend and opinion, that may very well cause Vista sales to bomb.
There have been false positives, yes. People uploading files to ftp for backup, or people uploading and/or sending images for business and work purposes are other causes I have encountered that have gotten people's accounts red flagged.
While it does defeat the purpose of file sharing to a degree, but I have found that ISP's can only really detect file sharing through your upload to download ratio. I work for an $ISP, and we red flag accounts with an upload equal to or greater than their download, which sucks for some customers who upload large amounts of information to other servers or sites. I don't agree with it, but I have to pay the bills:P

Bah. I would never use nice and new in reference to Vista. Digital rights restriction crap. :P
Unleashed the zombie horde in software format :P
