But it opens on my computer and thousands if not millions of others. So, how
can you say it's the OS's fault when it's not happening on all machines?
Seems to me the argument cuts both ways. You are having a problem that
others aren't having. Does that mean we have better machines than yours?
Does it mean you got a faulty copy of Vista? Does it mean something is wrong
with your machine?
I'm not saying that "yes" is the answer to any of those three questions. But
I think those are valid questions that present an alternative to your thesis
that it can't be "anything other than the operating system."
