Vista can be brought down by malicious SOUND files on the web. It is completely insecure, bug ridden, and is being completely lambasted by all of the real geeks whose opinions actually mean something.

It is, honestly, an extremely poor copy of OSX version 1.1 that somebody lovingly reverse engineered and broke trying to cram all of the Windows spaghetti code in to.

And read the fine print about using it. By using it, you agree to frequent inspections to your computer and your files by M$. For reasons they don't have to reveal, but it is for your own good. I'm pretty sure when the dust settles they will use the smoke screen that they are only checking for child porn and pirated files, and the only people complaining about the lack of privacy MUST be criminals.

Vista is the new spyware, malware, and Sauron's Evil Eye all rolled in to one buggy little package.
