According to Gartner, Microsoft's Windows Vista sucks hard. Gee, as if that is new. You, dear reader, have known that for quite some time. I don't even allow Windows in my house: I wiped the Windows PC I got from Dr. D. and put Ubuntu on it, of course (didn't even bother with dual-boot). The only piece of Microsoft hardware in the house, the XBox 360 (however their clever marketroids spell and capitalize it) is trying hard to die again (it consistently chokes after about half an hour of Mass Effect). Boo. If you make good product, they will come (if not, they will go).
