Seriously?
It's Microsoft's fault Acer partioned the drive as FAT and sold it that way? Worse yet you didn't notice and convert it before you loaded Vista??

Vista does need a decent machine. Screams on a Toshiba X205. It's less than the comparable macbook pro 17" at 2900, by around 900 bucks.


As for the software, he never said people would be clamoring for the "software". I assumed anyone would realize he was talking in IT terms and what drives the features the "user" wants. Tell Apple people don't want software driven features on their phones. Who cares if the they could care less who specifically wrote the code, that was never the point.
