Vista seems to be getting a bad reaction from many of those that are
trying its beta. Many problems have been spotted. Some people ... let's
call them "Microsoft apologists" ... state that this is to be expected
as Vista is only beta, and it will be cleaned up before it is released.

My heart sinks when I hear this, because, as the quip goes, it seems
like deja vu all over again. I recall people going on about how XP was
essentially released in a beta state. And it seems that Vista "proper"
will be released in such a state, too.

You know, I'm wondering whether this Vista turkey is ever going to fly.
Alas, it probably will, although some exhausting flapping may be
required. I'm getting a vibe that Win2k was actually quite good. Maybe
MS need to revisit the whole Win2k idea, with a view to seeing what
useful thing can be done with it.
