Vista Ultimate

I paid almost ?300 for Vista Ultimate and have been very happy with it so far, with none of the problems that other have experienced evident on either my wife's laptop or my own machine (Individual and Separate Installations ... more fool me!).

My question now, is this: Why would I give any more money to MS when it now appears that they are not going to support Vista with all the promised "extras" etc., now that they have moved on to Windows 7?

Add to this the next question I see appearing within the next 12 months or so: Why has MS abandoned Windows 7 for whatever "new" (similar) incarnation comes next? Could this be another "financial" decision? Why did the makers of "long life" electric bulbs suddenly change their design for less "long life" versions?

I have always been a supporter of Microsoft over the years but this is just too friggin' much dudes, and my next machine will either be unix based or a Mac, as much as it hurts me to say that, as I have always hated Apple for not being open architecture! End of Rant ... for now at least!
