As part of the annual year end wrap up eWeek sums up what most already know. The totally failed product called VISTA is a colossal mess - equal or greater than the Edsel or "New Coke" in their time. In fact it may be the biggest bust of all as it has almost single-handedly managed to stop the previously never ending growth of Windows as the OS of choice and opened the door at last to options. Perhaps we should be praising it for that accomplishment even as we have no sorrow over it's demise. We've been held back by Windows for over a decade so this hasn't happened a moment too soon.
I only pity those that, like a naive first time timeshare guest, bought into the hype and the promise. They will be hampered even worse than the average Windows user by buggy, bloated software and unknown pc ailments until they finally more on, just as those poor Windows Millennium (the previous low water mark) users were before them.
