The whole industry is disappointed with Windows Vista

  Posted: July, 24 2007

The Boss of Acer Gianfranco Lanci has blasted Microsoft’s Vista. Lanci told the Financial Times Deutschland that the impact of a new Microsoft “operating system” has never been so weedy as with Vista.

“The whole industry is disappointed with Windows Vista,” he said.

He said PC makers had been expecting the usual shot in the arm that a new Microsoft release brings, but it had not materialised.

Lanci said Acer, the world’s fourth biggest PC maker, had in many cases been asked by customers to install XP instead of Vista.

He said he didn’t think there was enough in Vista to tempt a punter to go out and buy a new PC.

    i first bought vista and can’t run adobe cs2 properly on it, when trying cs3 it completely removed the video card drivers…. was so desperate to make CS work properly I had to go out and buy XP… Vista is pretty but that’s about it… in fact don’t really need it, might as well sell it on ebay.. not that it’s worth anything now it’s been so defamed….
