With a crappy OS. ALL machines but a very small
percentage come with the worthless-as-pond-scum Vista installed.
When I bought my Sharp Actius a while back, it came with
a choice of W2K or XP on first boot. That flexibility seems to
have gone away.
The real reason(s) for Vista? Ramming ever more DRM down our
throats, making M$ even richer, forcing users to buy new hardware
to make hardware mgfrs. richer too.
It's not about the user at all (but it is about our bank account).
