Of course, it’s not because Windows 7 is ready or anything to crow about, it’s because Vista is a failure in every way. Windows 7 is Vista because Windows will always just be Windows. It’s always going to suck and M$ is always going to lie about it. Really. There is already evidence that Windows 7 is more DRM heavy than Vista was, benchmarks come back just as slow and it is still the same security failure every other version of Windows has been.

It is long overdue for everyone else to give up on Windows. M$’s late 80′s OS monopoly and late 90′s office format monopoly are very stale and it’s time for them to go. Free software is superior in every way, from solid subsystems and hardware support to excellent graphical user interfaces and user documentation. The way M$ maintains it’s hold on the market has destroyed retail, software and OEM partners alike. Only M$ benefits from Windows.
