riad, that probably does have a lot to do with it. but you have to considor that most people dont even know the specs on their computer anyhow.

I believe this is partly due to the fact that the requirements to run Vista are much, much higher than ever before. To actually run Vista necessitates high specs, and even needs a decent graphics card to run and a minimum of 1 gigabyte to manage, which effectively renders most older machines useless.
EDIT: That's a good point you bring up. However, there definitely is an emphasis on "power" with Vista; Microsoft is focusing on how Vista looks and functions and how elaborate the graphic interface is, instead of explaining to customers the actual performance of the OS and its design.

VISTA is simply a facelift of XP which in turn had 80% of it's code from Win2000. It (VISTA) is designed as nothing more than another cah cow for Bill and his thugs. There are linux distros ou there that can match anything VISTA can do and they have been around for two years in some cases.

I like it. I just downloaded RC1, and should be installing it within the week.
