Tech Review

1. You add nothing to the computing experience except some see-through windows. Wow.
2. You're incompatible with mucho software like Nero image drive, Directory Opus, and many others; and hardware like phones, TV tuners and printers.
3. You're slower than XP.
4. Up until the last hotfix, you would chug along at 100% CPU usage when charging the battery, rendering the computer useless and wasting hours of my time.
5. Not only did you cost me money that I could have spent on something more useful like some Ben Affleck DVDs upon which I could have placed my Coke Ones, but I had to upgrade several programs just for you-at great cost.
6. You nag worse than an OSHA bureaucrat at a Walmart loading dock. Is everything I do on my computer really that dangerous? Why don't I just leave it off and use a typewriter?
7. One compound word- Sidebar.
9. I upgraded my memory to two GB for what? To run Vista? Did you collude with memory manufacturers? Why didn't you just say 3GB? Some nerds would have fell for it.
10. The Windows explorer. This thing gets worse with every Windows. The best one was on Windows 95.
11. Windows Media Player. Why is the program that's integrated with Windows the slowest player of them all?
12. You needlessly rename things, sowing confusion. What was wrong with "add or remove programs?" Is "programs and settings" that much better?

Vista Sidebar. Because the clock in the corner is just too darn small.

**I really don't hate it like I hate terrorists or something. I just thought it would be more dramatic than, "Vista, how am I disappointed in thee?"
