When people were not aware it was Vista, they responded very well indeed to the OS. You are hearing a lot of information on how well Vista is performing now that they have 'bedded it in'!
I have just watched some of these video's and there is a link that says 'you can't please everyone' and one guy is told that 'Actually, you have just been playing with Windows Vista'.
He looks at the camera for a long few seconds and then says 'Really? They why is it Faster?' It is the common problem, if you can control the hardware and the software that is installed on the computer and then it will perform better than in an external environment.
Seinfeld and Gates in new Window's advert about, erm, well I am not really sure. I think they are saying that Microsoft are not up to scratch at the moment but have something in the bag that is ready to leap out and grab the market by Bill Gates shorts. What do you read into it?
I'd read into it that people who make commercials are paid too much, and that Microsoft are just reminding us they exist. That was a pretty bad advert, but if they can make PCs into cake that would be sooo cool.
Well, this is a strange idea but Ballmer (CEO of Microsoft) is saying quite bluntly - wait for Windows 7, forget about Vista. . . . wtf? If they did not believe in the product, why did they release it in the first place? They are basically saying, if you have purchased Windows Vista then you are a mug who has wasted your money. I can't believe that their share holders are going to be happy with that attitude. Not only that but why would you be influenced by public opinion in this way. The whole process is very strange.
The article basically makes it sound like a Vista bug-fix. With XP still getting security patches until at least 2014 I really can't see any incentive to switch, doubly so now that I see a lot of computer systems offered with XP for no extra charge.
