The Vista Failure

Back in January I said that I believed Windows Vista would be “usable” in a year’s time or so. After 8 months without any real progress towards that goal (I tried Vista again), I no longer believe that will be the case. I know SP1 will eventually come out but I doubt it can fix something that broken. Instead, maybe by SP2 Vista will be more or less fixed.

So umm if you’re not a gamer and/or don’t really need DX10, it’s probably a good idea to stay away from Vista until 2009 at least (and no guarantees it will be usable by then).

While we’re on the subject I found this Vista Failure Log.
