I’ve spent time today reading feeds and consuming general information and I have to say there’s one thing I’m wondering.
After five long years of development by a company with one of the largest R&D budgets in the world;
after promising a revolutionary operation system…
“Longhorn, the next version of Microsoft Corp.’s Windows desktop operating system, will be so different from its predecessors that users may not like it right away.†Bill G.;
and delivering what has been described as a slightly unstable XP with a pretty face and some extra utilities;
after taking the simple packaging model of “Home”, “Media” and “Professional” and turning it into a non-technical users selection nightmare; and
after taking one of the biggest concerns for Windows users, “security”, and making it so unfriendly and frustrating that most users turn parts of it off,
is there a general feeling of disappointment with the OS upgrade (Vista) that Microsoft delivered?
I know it’s a leading question, but the statements above were gathered today from reading others blogs and reviews concerning this subject.
