Besides, vista wasn’t that bad. I personally didn’t touch it till SP 1 came out (like I’ve done with every single microsoft OS since Windows 95). It was a memory hog and laid out different than people were “used to” — but it introduced some new concepts, ran very well if you weren’t cheap and bought good computer parts, I personally liked the security improvements (which also could use some tweaking — see windows 7), and of course, was “prettier.”

Complain all you want. You may not agree with how Microsoft does things, but obviously they did something right–being a multibillion dollar corporation and having all the market share they do. Just a piece of advice for the future — instead of switching to a new OS on a whim because you heard cool things… take the time to research it’s capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses — before wasting money on an OS you don’t quite need at the time.
