I've been to the zoo dozens of times and have never been mauled by any animals. I'm not saying he deserved to die, but maybe he should have stuck to taunting the turtles.
Something is wrong then because I have a low-end Sempron notebook with 1.5gb RAM, vista home and deletion is almost instantaneous...
Vista isn't perfect, but it's better than most of the (uninformed or lacking in experience) critics give it credit for. I have no doubt that something is wrong. Navigating through the maze of processes that Vista throws up goes beyond my limit of frustration though so I live with it for now.
I am not among the typical Slashdotter in a rabid MS hatred and love of all things FOSS. I recognize that there are places that both thrive. I will even go on record to say that I have a lot of love for Windows XP Pro. I, however, find "better than most of the (uninformed or lacking in experience) critics give it credit for" borderline humorous though. As the main critics of Vista SHOULD be the uninformed and those lacking in experience, as those are the user base that Vista was supposedly designed for.
Again, I have read the press releases and I have used it in real life to various degrees of success as well as frustration. My mind is set and it wasn't from reading comments on a message board.
It's much faster than XP... Wha wha what? Maybe on paper but not in the real world. I have a 2 processor 3ghz Xeon machine with 2 gb of ram. Not made for Vista admittedly but still a fairly decent machine. With a clean install of Vista it takes me around 5-10 seconds to delete a file. To delete a simple file sitting on my desktop. Again, I live in the real world things may be different in the Marketing world.

They may not be the first, but they are probably the first that actually matter. (No offense to CHOTTO GHETTO, and their cohorts and quoteunqoute records).
Oh dear god! The 14 HD-DVD players and the 5 blu-rays they have already sold will be thrown into a landfill! May our children's children's children forgive us for that 24 lb mess we created when we upgraded to Vista.

Do people that are 25 and play classic games such as Doom I & II, and zork have the ability to recognize a joke.
I dont' get this. Are you trying to be funny? Black != muslim.

No, that can't be it. Somehow we have to tie it back to Microsoft.
Oye, we're boned. They just created RAGE.
It doesn't cost them a cent to lock these names up for that period of time.
Probably a lot more considering that CDs usually run around $15 for 10-12 songs.
Your computer's problems must be difficult for the techs to diagnose with no hard drives.
It'sa me! Mario!
Er...that post made me feel really dumb. I'm going to come up with a Soviet Russia joke to compensate.

Angry about whatever, this is an awesome line.

He is just trying to get some action from the new receptionist.
He kind of looks like Dane Cook to me. That reason alone is enough to warrant a good taserin'.
I know it, back in my day we coded by punching holes in little cards! In the snow! And we loved it!
The richest man in the world being the spokesman for your company never hurts regardless of his charisma or geekiness.

Well Darth Vader found Hoth with fewer probes than that and it only took him like 4 minutes.
So I guess you are both wrong.
I love how no matter what shitty thing Apple does, Microsoft is somehow the bad guy!
Yeah, its Dell's fault that Power/iBooks were bursting into flames as well.
The fact that Nixon didn't go to jail is the reason kittens and babies die.
So by your definition there is no such thing as vaporware, as you never know what will be released someday?
I think vaporware means exactly what they imply. The fact that occasionally products break out of the vaporware cloud does not change its meaning.
