I suppose it hasn't occured to you that some of us actually run more
than one operating system?

Yeah, why does it have to be either/or? I use XP and Ubuntu.

In other words, for all your posting you have near nil hands-on experience
with Vista.

Sure there are people who dabble in everything, I played around with Linux
many moons ago, but I never felt the need to run into the Linux forums and
post why Windows is better. I work with a group of VMS people, who believe
VMS is the only way to do things and that everything else is just kids toys
(especially Windows), but they don't run to Linux or Windows forums and post
why VMS is better.

I don't go to a Ford forum and argue why my Yugo is better. It just reflects
poorly on any group to another groups and point out everything wrong with
them\it. We had\have Mac people in here arguing why Macs are better, but can
never explain why after all these years, they are still ~5% of the market.

Personally, I wish Linux and Apple all the best. It's not until one or both
capture about 30+% of the market, before Microsoft will release an
absolutely outstanding new product or they will die away like IBM mainframes
and VMS Vax servers. At which time, Linux or Mac will take over as the new
king and in 20 years or so, there will be a new upstart group\Os that will
make fun of Linux people and call them Lintrolls and such

People are here in the Windows groups, because they have windows. Most all
know they have other options, but those options don't appeal to them. They
prefer windows, it's what they know and they don't want to learn something
new or they just like Windows better. You can't make people like Linux, just
because you do. You'll never convince me, Pepsi is better than coke. Coke
may be an evil empire, that tortures millions of people and they may even go
out of business and I may start drinking Pepsi, but I'll always prefer a
Coke

Do you really think that proves something? You keep repeating it like a
parrot who's been listening to a broken record. Again, sigh, one does
not have to jump off the Empire State Bldg. to know it isn't a good
idea. If you can't grasp why it's prudent to wait until Vista is ready
for Prime Time, there's not much anyone can say but those who can will
be watching the brave souls like you who are using Vista to see what
happens as it goes through more testing, updating, third partying, etc.

Why are you responding to and supporting these trolls, this is not a linux
group, it's windows XP, ignore them, and they will go away, at least one
hopes!

Well.. yah? If you're not running Vista, how can you assist anyone in this
NG?

I guess you can't.

And if you can't, then what's the point of being here? Unless, of course,
your idea of assistance is to cast aspersions on Vista. And then the
question doesn't change: what's the point of posting in a NG that is
supposed to offer support to other users if your intention is to not
only -not- offer support to other users, but to bad mouth Vista?
