And you know that from 20 minutes of use. Genius.

Yes, I do. I am no genius but I am an Information systems Engineer with 5 years enterprise experience. I have 3 microsoft certifications and manage 15 windows servers, exchange, VPN, firewall (Sonicwall Certified) and all of our routing and networks. It did not take me long to get inside the basic functions of Vista to see it was bloated and not practical. My personal opinion is that I don't like it, it won't be easy for corp users to adjust so something so drastically different...

Your resume doesn't mean crap, and in fact makes your 20 minute judgement even more scary. Don't bother to reply.

I started programming in 1975.

I took the company, that I still work for, from having two stand-alone 8088s to the seventh-generation network of P4s they are running today.

Your take on this next OS is right on the money. Do not let any computer geek snob try to intimidate you into thinking any differently.

My respects.

5 whole years? Jeeze. I have a desktop that has more years than you. Heck, I have CHEESE in my freezer with more time than that.

I started in 1977. I have lost count of my Microsoft Certs -- I can get one in 24 hours by doing a class and then doing the Cert course. I get them as needed by my upcoming assignments. I have been tech leader of installations for companies with 200,000 employees and 10+ billion dollars a year. I have 4 servers in my upstairs office (2 linux, 2 Win 2K/XP Pro).

Trust me, you don't want to point to your 5 whole years of experience again (at least here in FR) as some sort of proof you are anything beyond diaper trained.

So much for Micr'soft's contention that Windows users can't learn anything new... like Linux for example.
