Windows Vista unreadiness revealed

[url]http://www.neowin.net/index.php?act=view&id=41661[/url]

Microsoft has finally outlined the extent to which Windows Vista was unfit
for the marketplace when it launched six months ago. A mere 650 applications
were certified for Vista when it launched, compared to 2,000 now. Seventy
"critical" enterprise applications from corporate mainstays such as Cisco
Systems, Nortel Networks, McAfee, Citrix Systems, Oracle, SAP and IBM are
"being resolved daily."

On hardware, 600,000 devices have been certified in the six months since
launch, now making Windows Vista compatible with 2.1 million devices. The
numbers were offered by chief operating officer Kevin Turner, who tried to
rally Wall Street analysts to the Microsoft flag of software - including
Windows Vista - plus services.

Didn't read the article and probably wont but to your feedback on
the article it sure makes me feel good to know so many 3rd party
companies are just clammering to get onboard with vista in such a
short time and wow look at all them big names just resolving
issues to be a part of Vista

600,000 devices in 6 months hmmmmmmmm did you read my two cents?

Sounds to me Vista was perfectly ready for the Marketplace just no
one else was, now theey are running around lie a chicken with it's
head cut off to be a part of it.

Re: Windows Vista unreadiness revealed

One very biased website linking to another very biased website.
Both known to place more priority in sensationalized headlines than
facts.

A headline often sets the tone for the bias as this one does.Another
way to write the same headline:
"Hardware and software manufacturers slow to become Vista ready in
spite of the fact they had all the resources needed."
Both headlines say about the same thing while one suits the bias of
the website while ignoring the responsibility of the manufacturers.

"A mere 650 applications were certified..."
Do not confuse that number with how many actually work and work well
which is and has been a far larger number.
Of course if you have statistics otherwise, feel free to post your
source.
Also do not forget it is the manufacturers who need to take action if
they want their product certified.
Microsoft can do nothing if the manufacturers do nothing.

Perhaps Microsoft should have waited until more hardware and software
was certified?
Wait for how long?
It is up to the manufacturers to decide when or even if to support
their customers products, no one can make them.
Of course their customers contacting them with their needs can help.
Some manufacturers start developing during the Beta stage and have
compatible components ready shortly after RTM.
RTM precedes general availability by about a month and those that
cared for their customers had products compatible at or shortly after
general release.
All manufacturers had access, it they wanted, to early builds of
Windows Vista.
How much were they willing to support their customers?
By now that answer is largely known.

Now those that do not have Vista support for their products have
probably determined their customers do not need to use their product
with Windows Vista.

There isn't anybody more partisan in this newsgroup towards Microsoft
than YOU Jupiter. You want to address bias, first check YOURS at the
door.

Now because I again exposed you as the phony you are be sure to say
I'm stalking you and remove all doubt you're just another fanboy twit
that couldn't be objective if your life depended on it.

Does Microsoft offer awards for being the best kiss up? You're for
sure in the running. <snicker>

Re: Windows Vista unreadiness revealed

Adam proves again he is a stalker.
Since he is unable to post anything of value, he needs to call names
and insult others.
When facts elude you stoop to your typical name calling.
The fact you are unable to post ANYTHING of value and are unable to do
anything other than your typical attack shows you as a stalker.

What Adam has said about name calling:
"Name calling, typical of ten year olds."

Another quote of the self proclaimed high IQ Adam:
"It never fails. Anytime somebody makes a post simply to engage in
pointless name calling, they confirm they are actually the dumb one."
This quote of yours describes your post so well.
Ignorant? Hypocrite? Liar? Something else?
Only you and more probably a professional know for sure.

And yet Adam needs to frequently call others names.
You seem unable to control your need to insult others.
Projection at work and a fair description of yourself Adam "ten year
old" and "the dumb one"
Who are we to argue when you describe yourself as such.

Listen you little screw up, you don't get to set rules here as much as
idiots like you wish they could. If you want to act like a jackass,
which you do, be my guest. If you don't like me pointing out what a
fool you act like, stop acting like a fool.

As I pointed out before out of all the lame MVPs that routinely get
their shorts all bunched up and disrespect Microsoft customers in the
so-called support newsgroup when you were given MVP status to HELP,
you are the worst offender and a bad reflection on Microsoft for
continuing to give Bozo's like you MVP status. The entire program as
Microsoft once was planning to do should be cancelled.

Re: Windows Vista unreadiness revealed

It is noted, as usual, you contribute NOTHING to this thread except
your pointless attack.

"should be cancelled"
Then tell Microsoft as has been repeatedly suggested to you.
You can also give Microsoft suggestions to fix it.

"Listen you little screw up"
You are getting a little bossy, and you tell others not to do as you
do.
Your continued need to call others names proves your own view of those
who call others names.
Repeated for you again since you did not read it before"
"Name calling, typical of ten year olds."
And
"It never fails. Anytime somebody makes a post simply to engage in
pointless name calling, they confirm they are actually the dumb one."
What Adam says in relation to how Adam acts tell a lot of your
character.

"and disrespect Microsoft customers"
Really?
I guess if you keep your dark glasses on.
You should read your countless posts showing nothing but disrespect to
others.
Your constant attacks such at in this thread demonstrate how little
control of yourself you have.
You seem unaware of what you yourself do.
Clearly you have a disconnect from what you expect from yourself and
what you expect of others to have such a double standard.

Post back in this thread to feed your ego as no other purpose will be
served.

Re: Windows Vista unreadiness revealed

Are you aware of how childish your post are.
Name calling only makes you appear foolish in this newsgroup.
You are not helping anyone with these childish outburst and rants.
I really wish if you can't control yourself you would just move on to some
other group.
There are people here who would like to actually help others with there
problem without having to wade thru your childish outbursts.

One way to fix the MVP program would be to kick prima donna types like
you out on your ass. The biggest thing you do here is try to pick
fights with me and tell others they posted to the wrong group. Maybe
if I give you a whistle you could go on the street and blow it. That
probably would make you happy.[color=blue]

You were trying to act like you were in charge here long before I
came. You need a ton of bricks to fall on you to understand nobody
wants you trying to be some heavy handed jerk that pretends he's in
charge?
