Keep notes and you can be amused when all this starts again with Windows Vienna! There isn't a single new complaint since Windows95. To see these old chestnuts dragged out with every new version of Windows. ĭon't like what you see in Vista? Too bad - once it's entrenched in business it'll make inroads in the home. As long as Microsoft can assert that a desktop machine running Windows Vista will continue to be able to fulfill enterprise business requirements in a stable, reliable way there will be plenty of businesses perfectly ready to plunk down their money to get what Microsoft promises will be "the most stable and secure computing experience to date.". Most businesses aren't concerned that their employees may not be able to view HD content on their desktop PC's, as that is not what they hire people to do (in general).
Who is the primary adopter of Microsoft Operating Systems? Businesses! Mmell, Slashdot: It's all about the business users: Sure, open source is wonderful (I use a lot of it, daily) but what many anti-Microsoft people want to admit (Or they're just to self-obsessed and ignorant to realise) is that Windows is basically perfectly fine for most consumers.

I don't have this silly inherent belief that all software should be free and I'm personally okay for paying for software someone like me worked hard to create. You know what I'm sick of having rammed down my throat. Microsoft finally fixed a hell of a lot of things in Windows and added a lot of things which were sorely missing and guess what ? Some small group of kids on a website complain about how Microsoft is 'forcing' it down their throat. Microsoft is damned if they do and damned if they don't. Robotskip, Slashdot, comes to Redmond's defense:
This makes XP seem positively desirable, meaning MS will certainly shut down XP product activation soon. To screw us over and make everyone buy the latest Intel (and AMD) quad processors for acceptable performance. FOR GOD'S SAKE - WTF DOES AN O/S NEED 800MB FOR? Now we know. I knew there had to be some reason for Vista's 800MB memory footprint. Nom du Keyboard, Slashdot, just knew there was something fishy: I don't think it will work, long-term: As Gutmann points out, cheap and single-use hardware devices can be created that circumvent premium content protection quite easily. The underlying market dynamics in the computer market, as Nick Carr recently said it, is that " hardware wants to be software, and software wants to be free." The Vista content protection specs seem to want to reverse that. I'll withhold judgement until I hear from people who know hardware design better than me, but this sounds like a major stumbling block for Vista adoption. It seems like Microsoft is trying to close the "analog hole" by using market fiat to require all hardware vendors to downgrade performance unless all devices are certified as DRM-capable. The Vista Content Protection specification could very well constitute the longest suicide note in history.

These issues affect not only users of Vista but the entire PC industry, since the effects of the protection measures extend to cover all hardware and software that will ever come into contact with Vista, even if it's not used directly with Vista. Providing this protection incurs considerable costs in terms of system performance, system stability, technical support overhead, and hardware and software cost.
Windows Vista includes an extensive reworking of core OS elements in order to provide content protection for so-called "premium content", typically HD data from Blu-Ray and HD-DVD sources. Peter Gutmann takes aim with a 7,000-word analysis of Vista's DRM mechanisms: Not to mention a South Park sendup of World of Warcraft addiction. Only 363 shopping days 'til Xmas! Yes, it's IT Blogwatch, in which Microsoft critics and defenders duke it out over Vista's DRM technology.
