Seriously. My next desktop is definitely going to be a Mac. probably one of those big screen iMacs. I was exposed to Windows Vista at a friend’s place recently and there’s no way I’m having that horror inflicted on me.
The following video may or may not be a factual account of what happened.

What is it with all the “Vista eats babies” nonsense you get around the place. I’ve had it since it RTM’d (yay MSDN subscriptions! Yay stupid workplaces who don’t cancel MSDN subscriptions even though you stopped working there 18 months ago!) and it’s fine.
In fact, it’s better than fine, and having to use XP at work is a real pain in the .
I’ve managed to avoid contaminating it with Adobe software in the main (except flash), and fervently avoided Java (what’s with these people and their “stick an icon in the systray so that people can get notified when we update things every year or so” retartedness? Anything that installs some sort of personal upgrade service has been axed, which is why it’s nice that MS have started using just one to update windows, office, visual studio etc….) And it’s lovely.
The only problem it’s ever given me was because nvidia couldn’t write quality software if you stood over them with a mallet.
So what is everyone complaining about?
You’re all freaks if you ask me, and if you want to use leopard instead then you’re welcome to it, I’ll suffer only the slightest twinge of envy over Coverflow and nothing else.

Yeah nice video, nice to see Mr.Angry again.
…but I think you’re wrong about Vista. You made me cry so much I had to watch DreamScene and calm down.
December 14, 2007 at 1:04 am
Ask NOT what Vista can do for you!!!!
But what YOU can *buy* for Vista… ha..ha.ha…
I LOVE the Mac/PC commercials and this is one of my favorites.
Oh.. and I’m typing away on my Vista installed Alienware and while… I’m not really “thrilled” with some of the things Vista does “to” me instead of “for” me… I don’t actually hate it as much as I used to when I first installed it.
I know.. I know.. heresy!

My brother just got a new laptop and it has Vista. He hates it. He’s 66 years old and new things don’t come easy to him anyway. He’s used to XP so this Vista thing has him totally befuddled. As my Dad always used to say “If it works, don’t fix it”.
December 14, 2007 at 4:24 pm
Every single user that I know hates Vista. The really frustrating thing (for me) is that in a year or perhaps some months, it will be the only Windows OS available for average Joe that buys a pre-built PC. It’s a good thing that I invested in a CD-R edition of XP pro.

Funny video!! Love those idiotic dialog boxes. It reminds me that I need to post some of my favorite real stupid dialog boxes. Like this one: “No Error Occurred”. Click OK on that one.
I love Vista (Business Edition, UAC turned OFF)- wanna know why? CAUSE IT’S SO MUCH LIKE MAC OS!! Sorry, don’t mean to yell. But really, the upgrade hamster wheel really sucks big time I totally agree. But I think Microsoft actually did a good job ripping off Mac OS’s look and feel.
I think you should get the Mac Mr. Angry. They are really nice! I’d love a nice MacBook Pro!
joanharvest, I’d suggest that the brother “personalizes” his Vista desktop to the XP or Windows “Classic” theme. That will save lots of befuddlement. Also, Vista needs at least 1G of RAM, preferably 2G.

Massif: This is called taking a cheap shot at an easy target.
goatsoup: ditto my previous comment
cinnkitty: damning with faint praise: “I don’t actually hate it as much as I used to when I first installed it.”
joan: it doesn’t seem too popular
E0157H7: Yeah, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many negative responses to an OS
David: some real error messages are so stupid they’re difficult to parody
December 20, 2007 at 1:20 am
Everything mickeysoft makes is so lousy… why are people even surprised that Vista sucks?
And the box said: “for Window XP, or better”… so I installed Linux.
December 21, 2007 at 11:11 am
Yeah, man, I went Ubuntu a couple of years ago and never looked back. It’s a little extra trouble, but the NET trouble may be negative, and it’s a LOT of extra freedom.
Own your computer. Go Linux.
December 23, 2007 at 9:57 pm
Hans: great line, I love it!
zafner: I’m not quite motivated enough to go Linux
January 6, 2008 at 6:53 am
F*** I hate vista. My old ‘puter crashed and I was in a hurry to get goin’ again…picked up an HP that apparently is exclusive to Vista. It’s been three months of aggravation and reloaded Vista twice, downloaded drivers dozens of times.
It kicks out my hardware, software won’t run, freezes on shutdown and boot up, takes over every fu**ing thing, and I cant even get anyone to come out from MS so I can shove it up their ass !!
I’m not ‘puter literate, I’m retired and I just want a machine that does the fuc*in job, not this babysit this a**hole machine all the time… next one’s gonna be a Mac – it really is too bad that a**hole Gates has shares in Apple too.
April 10, 2008 at 7:13 am
truth be told, microsoft makes good software, but that’s. anything else they can’t make. my 360 has just broke for the 3RD TIME!!!! and guess what?!?! their warrenty only covers one type of hardware failure, and mine isn’t that one. so conveniently (for them) I have to pay through the nose for the repair and all I get to show for it is a free month of xbox live. So I’m legitimately pissed off.. and I, unlike many of those whom have commented on this blog, have a legitimate reason to hate microsoft..
April 16, 2008 at 6:33 am
“truth be told”, – That’s funny!
“microsoft makes good software.” – Fukkin Hilarious!
Ha!

WELL I’M GLAD I FINALLY FOUND A SITE THAT THINKS JUST LIKE ME! MY NAME IS JAY SABADO. I LIVE IN SEATTLE, CLOSE BY TO THE GOOD OLD MICROFAG CORPORATION. I PURCHASED AN XBOX 360 CONSOLE ROUGHLY ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS AGO. I HAVE SPENT PROBABLY CLOSE TO 800 DOLLARS ON THE CONSOLE WITH GAMES AND ACCESSORIES. LAST NIGHT……………AFTER THE WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT WORKING FOR THE ABOVE MENTIONED TIME FRAME……….IT ALL OF A SUDDEN WILL NOT TURN ON. PERIOD. SO……….I PROCEEDED TO CALL MICROFAGS XBOX SUPPORT LINE. AFTER ANSWERING THE WORTHLESS CUSTOMER REPS RETARDED QUESTIONS AND STUPID FUCKING WALKTHROUGH THAT I ALREADY DID MYSELF 1 MILLION TIMES OVER SHE INFORMS ME THAT MY WARRANTY IS UP AND I HAVE TO PAY THEM 100 FUCKING DOLLARS TO FIX THEIR FAULTY PIECE OF SHIT. OH AND NOT TO MENTION THEY WOULD HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE TO DO IT. NATURALLY, AFTER SPENDING SO MUCH FUCKING MONEY ON A FUCKING PRODUCT FROM ONE OF THE MOST RICHEST CORPORATIONS THIS WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN AND THEN THEM TELLING ME I HAD TO PAY THEM EVEN MORE MADE ME TOTALLY INSANELY FURIOUS. I ASKED TO SPEAK TO THE SUPERVISOR. AFTER WAITING FOR 20 FUCKING MINUTES WHICH I’M SURE THEY DID ON PURPOSE THE AFOREMENTIONED WORTHLESS SCUM PILE CALLED A SUPERVISOR GETS ON THE PHONE. HE INFORMS ME THAT IT DOESNT MATTER HOW MUCH, HOW LITTLE OR WHATEVER I SPENT ON MY 360 THAT HE IS GOING TO STICK IT IN MY RECTUM WITH NO LUBE AND COME OUT WITH 100 DOLLARS TO FIX MY XBOX 360. I PROCEED TO TELL HIM TO FUCK HIMSELF AND HANG UP. SO AT THIS POINT I AM READY TO CUT MY LOSSES. FUCK YOU MICROSOFT!!! FUCK YOU BILL GATES!!! I’M NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER BUYING A MICROSOFT PRODUCT AGAIN. I’M SWITCHING OVER TO A PLAYSTATION 3. A STARVING CHILD IN SUDAN HAS A LONGER LIFE EXPECTANCY THAN THIS PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT THEY DARE TO CALL A GAMING CONSOLE. FUCK THEM.

Fuck Apple. They were almost dead some days, and I wish they go back there and all the way further.

Vista is the biggest pile of pig shit garbage OS ever to exist in the history of mankind. Bill Gates should have a Vista-based CNC laser burn a windows logo into his balls (only to crash and castrate him with a searing beam of light) then staple his crispy fried scrot to a detonator that nukes microsoft HQ into microscopic particles of dust with opening a portal to hell that sucks all Vista labels off the shelf and into the abyssal doom they were forged in. Basically put: Fuck Bill Gates for letting this shit come to market, fuck Microsoft for forcing this shit upon consumers then pulling the only salvation, XP, off the shelves, and fuck each and every last one of those useless, degree-milled sacks of fuck that have the audacity to call themselves programmers that made this filthy piece of shit Microsoft Vista. Fuck them with a red hot branding iron covered in ebola virus and jellyfish stingers.
June 2, 2008 at 5:54 am
I think that Vista is a load of shit, typical of wonderfull Microsoft to force the world to use Vista? What happened to customer choice? There must be some goverment lobby in the world who can take on this bunch of greedy wankers?? Please say that there is somebody out there who can set computers free & not be chained to the Microsoft circus for ever! Bill Gates & Hitler would get on well as both want to take over the world, pity we coudn’t take Bill Gates to court for crimes against computing! Fuck Him!!!!

fuck microsoft. Went to linux completely after trying vista rtm. I wanted to throw the computers out the damn window. 2 hours to install?! 10 minutes to boot?! no hardware compatibility. No drivers available from their manufacturers. Got god knows how many bsod’s during the damn installs. and then it tells me that it can’t load any of my xp games or apps because they aren’t vista compatible. Bill gates and his lapdog balmer can kiss my ass. Just cut my loss’s and went back to a unix based os. Havn’t had so much as one kernel panic or frozen app.
July 9, 2008 at 5:12 pm
Fuck Microsoft. Fuck Vista and all of their shitty products. Unbelievably terrible.
I went Mac a year ago and never looked back. I have windows so I can watch my streaming Netflix and thats about it. Even then I hate to hear that fucking MS boot up sound when I am forced to load windows.
Fuck you Microsoft, fuck you. And the horse you rode in on.
Seriously people, try Mac for a month and you will laugh with rage when you are forced to use MS again.
Cocksuckers!
July 24, 2008 at 5:58 pm
The only thing I can thank Microsoft for is forcing me to learn how to fix a fucking computer in every way imaginable. It’s almost like the goddamn government, they create two problems every time they try to fix one. I thought XP was going to be a blessing after suffering with Windows Me for years. Me was probably the worst op sys ever, but when I got XP I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. My brother got a Mac book and I got on it and I couldn’t believe how much better it was. I don’t know anything about Vista and I don’t intend to. Will be getting a Mac in a month.
September 16, 2008 at 12:44 pm
man, i just recently got ubuntu (linux) fuck both apple and microsoft

Vista, let’s not go there. It’s time for a Mac.
They have monopoly products, basically, and the design is, so far as I can tell, excellent if your design goals include really stupid extra keystrokes, extra work, crappy usability, and the general delight in inflicting pain. They have a huge market which is going to go away, even given the general lethargy of mankind and the problems with Mac or Linux, they’ll lose it because they are so incompetent. Just flaming idiots.
October 1, 2008 at 6:04 pm
You need to remember that Micro$haft’s software never started out as their software. They just took good shit and ruined it. Observe:
DOS: Bought from another developer, played withe a little bit, then put on to EVERY IBM PC under a licence agreement.
Windows 3.0 through to Windows XP: 3.0 was a direct clone of Amiga Workbench; they tweaked it and shovelled more useless “functionality” into it and migrated it towards MAC-OS, but Workbench is where it started.
Windows Vista: It’s the bloatware version of OS-X! How Bill Gates had the stones to deny that is way beyond me; the whole GUID is just stolen, wholesale, from MAC! The only thing about that which makes me laugh is that it means that the designers at Microsoft must use MACs!!! Bwahahahahaha!!!!
And Windows 7, the upcoming, lightweight, kernel only version? Linux, anybody?
Seriously, for the biggest software company in the world, can anybody actually name one GOOD thing that they’ve made? I really can’t!
October 2, 2008 at 2:13 pm
I find that if you turn everything off for vista (all the fancy effects etc) its actually quite usable. But funnily enough it pretty much makes it exactly like XP.
What i dont get is it took 7 years for this shit. WHAT DID THEY DO! changed some icons and made a pain in the arse ‘click to allow’ feature.
October 2, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Totally agree, Cody. I get so tires of setting every program to “Run in XP Compatibility Mode” that I’m forced to wonder why I’m not still running XP instead of Vista!
October 22, 2008 at 11:52 am
I’m totally with you after more than 10 yearys with this shit. They churn out crap and expect us to fix it. Fuck them with a 90mm artillery shell. Bill Gates sucks my cock!
October 29, 2008 at 7:36 am
I got a Vista this SUNDAY (2 days ago) it now will not cinnect to the internet, so now I’m back to my 6 year old Mac OS X, that is more high tech then the vista. Oh, and guess what, Microsolft has no idea why my computer is operating so badly, and I can’t get a refund because I didn’t pay 100-something bucks for the privilege to take it back!
Fuck both Microshit and Best Buy!
November 9, 2008 at 2:39 am
Vista is better than XP but still succ. MacOS best!
November 13, 2008 at 10:33 am
Ok, so we’re all pissed off at Bill Gates and Microshaft. I do have to admit the guy IS a genius, just not a genius for making computer software. He is a genius at ripping people off in mass quantities, and locking his strategy down so that we can’t do a damned thing about it. I agree that just about every version of Windows is a stolen idea itself. It’s so full of security problems that companies are making the big bucks on virus and spyware removal. The average American is usually not very technologically advanced. We are so busy working, trying to pay our bills, and trying to survive, that we DO tend to go with the easy-to-use everything. Bill Gates, and many of the “poor-man-ass-rapers” in this country… don’t have ANY idea what THAT is like. They wake up each morning, check on their stacks of $$, and harden their plans to screw more americans. Ok that being said, MY IDEA…is this: I know we’re mad, but why don’t we use our anger and our energy.. and try to get our shit together and develope something better? Why don’t we try to learn more than just point and click? I know if I had the knowledge.. I’d make an OS that would blow Windows away. Bill would never see me comin’… I’d offer that shit up for FREE and although he’d still have plenty of $$… I would have my dignity. Which is something someone like Bill Gates will probably never have.
December 2, 2008 at 9:36 am
I am so damn tired of vista telling ME what IT wants to do and taking up 50% of my memory when just at a blank desktop. Also, why would anybody make an OS that needs a video card just to run? I can’t believe they found a way to make something more annoying than winME! Not only is it shit, but they spent big bucks running those “mojave” commercials trying to deny their incompetence. Way to treat your customers, tell them they don’t know a piece of shit when they see it. Fuck their shitty software. I don’t care what they do after this. They have been fucking up consistantly since at least 98, and I’m done with it! They need to get it through their heads that they are not the only game in town anymore. You can’t suppress every rival forever, eventually you have to actually INNOVATE to remain competitive! IMHO they’ve had enough time to shape up. I will be taking my business elsewhere.
December 2, 2008 at 9:39 am
BTW I like Gates. Look at the amount he’s given to charity recently and it’s hard to hate the guy.
December 3, 2008 at 3:53 am
Dude, I made the switch to Ubuntu because of so many things. I m not a big fan of apple either cuz their stuf is more hyped up e.g iPhone (although I have one) but atleasts looks good with an excellent out of the box experience.
But seriously people should use Linux more… it is better than anything these so called software giants put out.
December 24, 2008 at 6:12 am
Wow, a blog full of people who hate Micro$oft as much as I do. I’ve never used Vista, and judjing by the things I’ve heard I never will. I switched to Linux a few months ago and never looked back. Sadly, 98% of the people in my country are using winblows, and 85% of them don’t know what an operating system is… I mean, I got the same performance from Winblows XP and from openSUSE with compiz fusion effects…
and to Vladimir :
1)this post is about Microsoft,
2) Apple is MUCH better,
3)are you russian?
January 23, 2009 at 3:57 am
You have so many things ‘right’…in such a disturbing yet correct way…Too many people try to offer up ‘tact’ or have no idea wtf they are talking about and support ‘OBAMAnations’ just because of pop culture…however…’sub pop’ is still ‘pop’ but at least your leading the lemmings right with an angry voice….

January 26, 2009 at 4:38 am
Christ do people have a lot to say concerning this one. I’d just like to point out that I have Vista and (perhaps I’m the only one) I have never had a single problem with it. I’m convinced that whether or not Vista works for you has to do with the quality of hardware in your computer. If you live in America and you go out and buy some piece of shit Dell from Wal-Mart then I would hardly be surprised that you hate Vista. At the same time I think if you invest in a good computer with decent specs you can have a good experience with Vista. I did. But hey, thats just me.
January 29, 2009 at 11:00 pm
I hate to piss on your chips, splitknife, but my main rig a an Intel Core2Duo 2X2.4GHz rig with 2 Gb of DDR2 and an nVidea 8400GX card in it, and it runs Windows Vista Home Premium BADLY. So badly, in fact, that I now have it running the Windows 7 Ultimate Edition Beta (which, I’m pleased to report, runs like a dream). It’s not about the hardware, it’s about a shitty OS which MS should never have released in the first place.
January 30, 2009 at 5:07 am
Hi,
I used Windows all my life and but then i switched to Linux.
This the OS that gives you control and my machine deserves it.
Vista is the most annoying thing i have ever seen.
I mean MicroShit has broken all there own records of stupdity.
This blog is great. I like it.
January 30, 2009 at 7:07 am
Fuck oFF MicroFuckers.
Don’t buy a PC for music production no matter what anyone tells you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have 7 PC’s and have had probably 14 in my time not one of them has ever and I mean EVER produced the goods. Buy this and buy that to fix your problems is all a waste of time. If anyone ever claims to have had a Microfucker PC for music production, you can GO AND FUCK YOURSELF because you probably didn’t test it
Microsoft FUCK OFF. BUY MAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
February 6, 2009 at 7:48 am
Alrighty then custador. I run Vista Home Premium as well, but on a HP m9402f with an AMD Phenom Quad-Core 2.3 GHz, 7 GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce6150E.
Believe me, I’m not saying that Vista doesn’t run badly for a lot of people, or that Microsoft employees weren’t smoking dope during significant portions of code writing, but I think its a mistake to just write Vista off as a piece of worthless shit altogether. Some people it runs great for, others (including you apparently) not so much. I don’t know enough about computers to support this with any conclusive evidence, but I think that its just a matter of getting a good combination of hardware and software.
February 8, 2009 at 10:38 am
Systolic pressure must be up around 200 after spending 2 hours trying to get Word 2007 to print one little envelope address single space. God, I hate Microsoft. They f-up everything they touch. Word 2003 was easier to use and Word 2000 was easier yet, and Word 97 was easier etc. I’m in the process of learning to use Linux, but there are going to be some challenges there, too. It is comforting to know that I’m not the only person who ended up finding and posting to this little community of malcontents by Googling “fuck microsoft”.
February 8, 2009 at 10:51 am
I’ve spent 1 month working on a pc running XP pro for high end audio application trying to get it to run correctly and do the job. I installed osx on the same pc and it fixed my problem in one day. Microsoft wankers wasted 10 years of my life. I wish I bought mAC
Fuck off MS. I love you but I hate you more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I fucking hate microsoft and I wish death upon bill gates children and his wife and serious death by diaorreah on the fucker himself… Fucking money hungry greedy motherfucker cant help but come out with a new fucking operating system every few years and fucks up everyone life… I hope the fucker gets another pie smashed into his face with a fucking iron in the pie so that his cheekbones smash into the back of his head… fucking motherfucker.. I WILL FUCK HIS SISTER MAN!!!

February 23, 2009 at 3:31 am
Ive been using a PC for years, ive had every possible virus,bug,glitch,spyware and adware and all those other nasties… (over time, managing to clean up and continue with my work/browsing and game playing) – I always used to defend microsoft too when people would look down their nose at XP.
But now, ive had one toooooo many f***ing issues with nasty bugs, updates, registry scans, defrags, re-installs, uninstalls, time consuming scans and reboots etc etc. – Now, it really IS my time to get my biggest sledge hammer and end my PC’s life. -
I have no money for a MAC, but i will save and save and save until i CAN afford one.
Time is also money, so i still think i’ll be better off in the long run.
Something tells me i wont get so stressed when i do.
March 2, 2009 at 2:11 am
The redmond retards are consistant they can only produce one thing (Shit) and their only business plan is buy and fuck everything they can.
The Redmond Retards buy a good product, then within two releases it no longer resembles nor functions the original working product.
The RR’s are aliens brought from space to ensure that mankind stays in the dark ages and never progresses past the caveman tech era of microshaft’s specially designed shitware.
Use anything but MS, and tell everyone around that they are becoming a RR (redmond retard) for even using their shitty, useless crapware.
Gates is to software what hitler was to the Jews.
March 4, 2009 at 3:53 am
You are absolutely right. Why all tis negative shit on the internet? I have learned words even from a annomis source can be painfull. Most of these guys are just slamming. Let them go out and post something. somethig meaningfull They wont or can’t

Aghghg. I just had f****ing M$ Word crash AGAIN and again and again over trying to insert a fucking symbol. I hate HATE MS 2007, and am getting a Mac. I’m so sick of this shit. I did research and found out that on a Mac that a program doesn’t intrude with OS functions (like inserting a symbol). This is at the OS level, not at the f* program level, asshat M$. I’m so done. I’ll cave, I’ll admit it, I’ll finally f* admit it: the Mac is sexier, cooler, more stable, and being effectively a Linux distro is more stable—ah, I said that already (note, I had to use a f* — for an M dash because I can’t find the f* M dash). If you love Windows, stay with it. Find my reasons for switching petty? So what. My time, my sanity, my money. F* MS! Good bye MS.

FUCK MICROSOFT!!! I’VE ALWAYS HATED THEM.
By the way, for those morons out there who don’t know a damn about Linux, go jump off a cliff.
Linux= Free AND AMAZING
Mac= Expensive AND AMAZING
M$= FUCK YOU, END USERS!
April 10, 2009 at 12:24 pm
To everyone about to trash a perfectly good computer because of a shitty M$ OS, PLEASE – give Linux a try. It’s not that difficult. I just got started with Ubuntu 8.10 and it’s way better than any Windows (I’ve used everything from 3.1 to Vista and everything in between) and even better than MacOSX. Don’t blame the hardware! You’ll save money and frustration.
April 11, 2009 at 3:24 pm
MF@#$% Damn microCRAP. It’s almost as if…they…don’t…TEST THEIR SOFTWARE!
May 5, 2009 at 5:15 pm
Just spent the whole evening with “microsoft” “update” and now there’s no way to just save-off the update history as a text list. And they hard-code the results to just 10 per page. What are they thinking at that place? Do they ever use their own junk-interface? I tried save-as *.mht and it results in some redirected embedded html in the file. Idiots.
May 27, 2009 at 8:22 am
Vista is great if you like infinite restart loops and buggy ass updates. Thanks microsoft for another quality product!
May 29, 2009 at 4:19 am
WTF is wrong with you peeps. There would not be
any kind of MAC w/ out MickeySoft. Apple died long ago. Gate’s Re-Monetized it, and lo & behold we have Apple running on INTEL Proc’s. So while you are thinking, hey M$ can’t profit if I use Apple (HACK. COUGH). Think again. They all ready are!
The worst part of this is, they used “Open Source” to gouge people with! A good lot of the code came from BSD, and / or Linux (oh and lets not forget Xfree, or Wine, etc…). “Ooohh. Cool, I just installed **umptescratch distro**, and my computer works ‘So much better.’. Of course it will! Why shouldn’t it?

I am sure that even ghandhi would have been ready to smack the living shit out of Bill Gates in the blink of an eye, after using that bloated piece of shit vista…
Fuck you Microsoft. I want the time back that i have wasted trying to solve the problems you should have fixed for me. Fucking Lamers..

Fuck Bill Gates that fat fucking piece of shit nerd! Hes should hold a press conference and openly apologize for Windows Vista! ITs the dumbest fucking operating system to ever hit the market and is loaded with confusion, errors, and stupid fucking shit that delays loading time and makes u wanna punt ur piece of shit computer across the fucking room until you have put enough holes in you wall to satisfy your burning hatred. Fuck you Gates! Fuck you you fucking fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s a daily thing: the alerts, the pop-up permission asking, memory-wasting, time-sucking bullshit.
Booting takes forever.
MAC is expensive.
LINUX is where it’s at people.
Take back control of your computers.

FUCK MICROSOFT. FUCK ITS FUCKING STUPID SYSTEMS.
I’VE SPENT TWO FUCKING WEEKS OF MY LIFE TRYING TO GET A SOUND OUT OF THIS FUCKING PC.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKK

Microsoft always uses a “swiss cheese approach to security” which has created a gigantic security software industry that sells solutions to protect against viruses, spyware, registry corruption, spam, and dark hacking attacks.
If Microsoft actually gave a damn about security (they never will as long as making money fast is their top priority), we wouldn’t have nearly as many problems as we do now.
This stupid UAC garbage is a leaky-bandaid solution to the problem. Did you know that if software is engineered to use certain API calls that the whole UAC thing gets bypassed completely? Many of the spyware and virus authors know this well, which means that only the regular software vendors get penalized by this nonsense by way of having to support frustrated users who are sick and tired of clicking the OK button repeatedly just to run an icon from their desktop.
I say “screw you” to anybody who thinks that users just need training. What users need is a system that works without interruption, and UAC is one big annoying interruption.

Hmmm… Vista is a pain. It’s fine and all, but not nearly as good as MacOSX running on my Dell….

It works!

Microsoft are first and foremost a business. They are ruthless and don’t give a hoot about their customers.
I’ve been a loyal microsoft customer for 14+ years – so much so that my boss suggested I get a microsoft tatoo. I’m a developer so my tolerance for problems is above average. However, I’ve been worn down by s***y problems and bugs in micro$oft’s products for too long and I’m starting to realise I don’t have to put up with this crap. I can’t count the number of work hours I’ve lost fixing issues micro$oft should’ve addressed in their software!
LOL I need something that works when I need it. I’m switching to open source Ubuntu.
I hope microsoft dies a slow and painful death for all the hours of my life wasted fixing needless problems.
August 19, 2009 at 10:05 pm
fuck microsoft and their fucking programmers too. never got around to make something stable nor fixed an update. Vista… 7… Xp all shits… and the boss one big fat, shit-crammed asshole. FUUUUUCKKK winshit.

The huge amount of gold in Bill Gates’ pockets was supposed to be spent on software testing and usability testing you buggy-windoze-loving 1d10t$ – get a clue.

As far as any commercial organization is concerned, the end user is always the one who suffers. It is best to go for a non-commercial Operating System, like Linux.
And although Microsoft Vista does not eat babies, Vista does (as with any version Microsoft Windows) takes away your rights to freedom. Check this out to know more about it:

Here’s a post about Linux for those that would like to opt for it and retain all their freedom:

I never could install Office 2007 on my old Dell Inspiron. It wouldn’t take the product key, and when I called Dell and Microsoft they wanted me to pay a fee for THEIR fuckup.
Now that I’ve put those useless fuckers in my past, life is beautiful. Oh, and Vista sucks donkey balls.

I like this site.
Indeed, Fuck Microsoft.
They’ ve never released a good OS.

I work in computer graphics/3D animation, and have been running graphics applications on PC’s for years now. Vista is without a doubt the most irritating, useless, horrible OS ever written and theres not an animation studio in the world that would incorporate it into a workflow, because it would without a doubt lead to their going out of business (and I’m not just making that up. No studio will go near it because dealing with it’s many glitches and flaws would be a massive time sink). I have two systems that came preinstalled with Vista, and both have experienced an extraordinary amount of program crashes, bugs, and other irritants. I have to reboot my system at least once daily, my programs crash at a minimum of 5 times a day a piece. I’ve tried turning off aero, following a few guides to speed up Vista’s performance, but nothing makes it even remotely enjoyable or efficient compared to other OS’s. While I suppose it would be alright for doing basic stuff like checking your email, listening to music or running microsoft apps, i’ve even had issues just running microsuck software like IE in the past. I have no viruses, nothing like that….the OS is just garbage if you plan on doing anything on your system beyond the grasp of a 5 year old (which ironically are the only people Microsuck can convince to endorse their garbage in commercials). As far as Windows 7 goes, I have had so much stress and aggravation over Vista that I am no longer willing to trust Microsoft, and this will be my last generation using Windows. At my last workplace I had two systems, a Mac and a PC running XP. While I would still prefer XP and i’m aware that Mac isn’t perfect, it’s sure as hell better than Vista. I’ve dabbled with Ubuntu but theres no driver for my printer, so I’m thinking I’ll be moving on to Mac as soon as I can afford one. Screw Microsoft.

OH I LOVE YOU FOR WHAT YOU ARE SAYING FUCK MICROSOFT AND FUCK VISTA

Since I’d much rather be running CPM, HELLO gates, in a world without fences, who needs Gates? I’ll rather be running Linnx. Vista SUCKS BIG TIME!!!!!
My next computer WILL BE A MAC, or one that runs Linnx, screw you gates, you havn’t done anything right ever since you stole CPM many years ago. You could have augmented it, but instead you chose to crippled it and you then sold it as your new idea, NOT. Vista SUCKS BIG TIME!!!!! Your new idea’s, (vista) no better than that, (win 7). MS sucks as a supplier of a truly VIABLE operating system. Millions lines of code works much slower than code written in assembler. Wake up idiot.
I still have a working CPM computer, I still enjoy using it greatly , unlike my 1 Tb tower.
October 18, 2009 at 3:51 pm
You were exposed to vista at a friend’s place: that’s all? I paid real money for it and now I have to put up with the damn crap every day
I HATE vista!!!!!!!!!!
I have been in the software industry for over 20 years: vista is the worst piece of crap I have ever seen.
Yes, Bill Gates you should be paying us for the heartache your crap causes
I wish I had gotten an illegal copy instead.. Used Microsoft o/s, office and other programs for many years, always upgraded to the latest: but after this I WILL NEVER AGAIN BUY ANOTHER MS PRODUCT AGAIN
October 18, 2009 at 4:03 pm
Bill Gates you creep, you are a fucking lier and a thief: vista is not an “upgrade”. It is a 1,000,000 steps DOWN from the lowest sewer rat on the bottom of the filthiest, slimiest pond.
Vista is giving me a fucking mental breakdown.
I’ve had enough of your rubbish software. I’d rather be using a quill than vista.
October 18, 2009 at 4:48 pm
It’s not enough for microsoft to overcharge unsuspecting people for non-functioning vista software, they are now officially known as criminals:
see “Australian Sory” on abc.net.au (24 august 2009)
http://www.abc.net.au/austory/specials/thebigdeal/default.htm
Bill you are a fucking greedy prick with an ego bigger than your bank account. If vista is anything to go by then your programming skills suck.
October 22, 2009 at 1:29 am
Boys
One thing Gates has achieved is to bring together
a bunch of gents as yourselves. thank you so much for the great laughs.

I found this looking for anti-MS rants. I jus installed the trial version of XL ‘07. I’v been using open office calc for a while, but have been using XL ‘03 at work for many years, & now I have a ton of homework to do, & the open office is getting a little irritating, mainly because the book is about XL, not OO. OK fine, I get the “full featured” 60 day limit trial version. OK, its not full featured, no charts. That’s what I need damn it. OK, fine its a free trial version. But THEY said it was a full featured trail version. Therefore I should be able to create charts. More irritating than that is the fact that I open the program. Go to the file menu / ribbon / whatever the fuck it is now, then OPEN. Click on the drive dropdown. It goes into this mode where it has to configuration mode that took forever. finally click on a drive, 2 minutes later, I can click on a folder, 2 minutes later I can click on another folder. OK, the hell with this, I’ll just browsw through windows explorer & open the file.
I mean its just rediculous.
I do have vista installed on a new machine (not this one), & it runs fine. I’m running 3DSMAX 64 bit. It can handle files (for rendering) that my 32 bit XP machines couldn’t handle. (I must have bought the one copy of vista that actually works).
but otherwise I think M$ totally sucks..
like when you upgrade vista, it goes from the excessive 10GB, to the insane 32GB!!! (hint: find a slipstreamed ISO w/ sp1 & sp2 )
November 11, 2009 at 7:57 pm
I love it. I did try to log in live messenger and got “A new version is available, do you want to install it now? You must accept to continue”. No way to log in without upgrade. No joke.
