He is very keen to get windows 7 out. I read somewhere that several heads rolled over the multiple delays and numerous leaked alpha releases, I think he sees Vista as an omen of bad luck!
KDE (linux) can do the multi touch thing that is supposed to be main feature in windows 7

you may have heard a rumour that Vista is a virus ... no, vista is not a virus. here's what viruses do:
[list][*]they replicate quickly. ok, vista does that.
[*]viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so. ok, vista does that.
[*]viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk. ok... vista does that, too.
[*]viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems. sigh ... vista does that too.
[*]viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow and the user will buy new hardware. yup, that's with vista, too.

Vista trashes the HD? What does trash even mean? It will tell us our system is slow?
Seriously though, i'm quite sick and tired of people bashing Vista when a) they dont know anything about computers. b) they have not used it them selves.
I've been using Vista ultimate for 1.5 years now without any problems.

I have Vista so I can comment
1) 1gb of RAM just isn't good enough.
My Dad has a similiar machine downstairs but with a slower AMD processor and XP he boots up in 20 seconds I boot up in 3minutes.
2) Software imcompatability. I had to pay for some software cause some freeware isn't compatible.
It's alright but could be better tbh.

1) you have insufficient system resources, i fail to see how that is Vista's fault. Its like saying Doom 1 ran perfectly fine on Pentium 1 so why cant Call of Duty 4 run on it?
2) I can say the same for XP. An enormous amount of software and games for windows 98 became obsolete when XP came out due to their incompatibility.

Insufficent resources?!?
I fail to see where visa needs to send all this power.
And 98 loseing all the software cmpatibility was worth it for the added fuctionality XP offers, again I fail to see where Vsta offers more and takes away more :/
