    I got one of these annoying spam emails from Microsoft, but this one actually caught my attention with the subject "what do people really think of Windows Vista?" Well wondering (well, not really 'wondering') what Microsoft thought people really thought, I went ahead and followed their link; "watch these videos to see the surprising things they had to say." I was amazed how these people who probably had all of an hour made the decision that this new operating system was top notch. I might just have to change my view on Vista! Oh, but wait, an hour isn't enough time to see all the inherent problems that come up with time and real world usage. Oh well, maybe I'll just stick with my pessimistic view of Vista.

    What does everyone else think? Did anyone else get this email?

    Ya, I guess it's just good marketing. Distract from the problems and push the bandwagon appeal.
