yeah and Democrats only lose because they just didn't get their message out...
You know something is bad when the only "Pro" arguments for it is the customers are just to dumb to understand or they are afraid of something new. See Soccer, Presta valves, Windows Vista, etc.
I hate “ribbons” and bought 4 copies of Office 2003 (in 2013) from (believe it or not) “Goodwill Computer Store” just so I would not have to go beyond Office 2003...
I LOVE “Presta Valves” on my racing bicycles! Lighter, more accurate, better in every way, for what they are designed to do, be a light springless skinny valve for light skinny racing tires! Do you even know what they are? Why would you know? If you used racing bikes, what valve did you use that is better?
I also LOVE WINDOWS VISTA and am writing on it NOW (my favorite machine) and have Win 8.1 and Win 7+ (and older Windows) and all the newest versions of Mac and several good versions of Linux and understand them all reasonably as a current “power user,” who in the last 10 years was also a programmer. (I have 9 personal computers — and use many others at work.)
My fully updated and constantly stressed FAVORITE Windows Vista 64 bit is a GREAT OS that has not crashed for probably a YEAR. (I have rebooted for certain updates — I have a UPS and it is ALWAYS ON.) Windows 7 is actually DUMBED DOWN from XP. VISTA is only a little dumbed down from XP and it is better than Win 7 except that MS does not support it as well and there are a points where Win 7 has gotten a little better (though still stupidly dumbed down on other issues).
I am SICK of your “party line” that something is wrong with VISTA when it has been updated to SP2 on good hardware.
I am running Vista Ultimate 64 bit SP2 INTENTIONALLY on a “homemade” Intel I7 2600K 3.40 GHz 8 gig system that runs GREAT. I have new Win 7 64 bit Ultimate version sitting shrink-wrapped right beside me that I have NOT applied because of how well this computer runs already right now! YOU no doubt are NOT writing from experience, and if you think you, are I would have questions!
I AGREE WITH YOU, however, that SOCCER SUCKS, UNLESS you are PLAYING IT YOURSELF. We Americans are right about this, of course. If you are playing soccer yourself, it is OK (and despite being old I HAVE PLAYED SOCCER), and (way worse eventually) I have SUFFERED through my kids playing it.... Let them play it if they like it, but forget political correctness and call it a boring and stupid game for 85% of people not playing it themselves. The other 15%, well, let’s just call you “special” and leave it at that...
LOL !
