Hmm, I don't quite get the annoyance, since it sounds as if you're one of the fortunate people who shouldn't be annoyed! If Vista works well for you, that's a good thing. Yet please understand: even if it works great for you, there are many, many people – from computer newbies to IT professionals – for whom Vista has truly, genuinely, spectacularly proven to not work well. And hell hath no fury like a shopper disappointed, so those crowds will speak out!
