more like you guys just hate anything microsoft. they could make a machine that cures all disease, solves everyone's problems, and costs $0.50. you guys would still hate it and have no objective opinion on it.

bottom line of this dumbass thread. software has beta releases for a reason, dipshits.

shut the fuck up already impala. stop playing the oppressed victim in the minority. most of the people on this forum use XP, you aren't anywhere near a minority. The only difference is, the rest of us can tell when something needs to be fixed and when something's so flawed that it's not even worth buying. I seriously doubt that people have a personal vendetta against microsoft; they have a vendetta against crappy software that leaves them open to many security problems as well as fails to fucking work half the damn time.

Yes, software has betas for a reason. They also have ALPHAS for a fucking reason, as well as workbuilds. compare microsoft's betas to almost any other company's betas, half the time microsoft's tend to suck a lot more. exceptions are the windows antispyware, at least from my experience, but i rarely used it before i decided i just didn't like it. WMP11 and vista, on the other hand... WMP11 crashed on load every time when i installed it, vista would freeze when a usb2.0 device was plugged in and the system idled. So yeah. That SUCKS. Oh, and don't even get me STARTED on the IE7 beta. these should at the very least be CLOSED betas, considering they all have so many security flaws in them that they don't need to be floating around in public domain. (I know Vista is MSDN only, but the other two aren't. actually, IE7 might be, i forget. WMP11 isn't, i know that for sure.)

Realistically, they should be staying in house as developmental alphas.

considering that there's almost nothing NEW left in vista and it's basically a facelifted XP now, there's little to no excuse for it being in such a shitty fucking state.


END OF THREAD BEFORE IMPALA GHEYS UP THE ENTIRE COMPUTERS FORUM AGAIN.
