RE: What if Apple had conducted the 'Mojave Experiment'?
The problem is not Apple or Mojave. The problem is that all these people hate Microsoft period. No matter what they do. They could end world hunger, find a cure for all diseases and still, the very same people would go on criticizing and finding fault with something or other. So why bother. Use Vista if you like it, use something else if you don't. Just don't pay any attention to anything else.
