Hasta la vista Vista
It’s been fun Microsoft. From the heady days of Windows 3.1, through the rock star arrival of Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000, and XP (Home and Pro). We’ve had some times haven’t we? Remember when there were 20 diskettes for an install? But sadly all good things must come to an end.
…cash in my wallet…
You see, old friend, we’ve come along way together, but I just can’t go down this new road with you. I just can’t bring myself to put aside my completely serviceable laptop to take in this new “Vista” with you. You always seem to want more; more memory, more horsepower, more money. Well I just don’t have it. Now don’t get all upset… and no I’m not going to get one of those Apples either. Even though all the cool kids want one, they just want more too…
You go ahead into your bright future… I’m just going to stay here with what I have, my new penguin friend Linux, my old trusty laptop, and my cash in my wallet.

and to have 4 versions of it too. Just another way for them to grab more money for just a few features. It does look cool but then again they stole the best parts from Apple.

Exactly! Enough is enough.
I considered getting Vista for my Inspiron which is a pretty much new & Vista-enabled. I like the animated effects that I get with Windows XP Media Edition though….odd, the little things that each of us finds comforting about our computers.
On my desktop, I don’t want to even try messing around with seeing if Vista will work. I have too much that I value of my writing & too little time for this.
I doubt it could really be that impressive, truthfully.
Trust me, it isn’t….
