Have you guys thought why Microsoft is giving away so many free copies of Windows Vista and FREE upgrades? I don't really see much difference other than the stuff Apple has on their computer .... Apple even has a new commercial making fun of all the security on Vista! Something is not right.. Lets Talk!

I've often wondered why this is, no windows that is... Is it really as a cost saving method regarding vandalism (if so quite unjust and sad really) or is there some greater mystical "meaning" behind it? It's sad the door to your church has been vandalized, I can only hope that the perpetrators not only receive just punishment but repent from their ways be they C_____c or what have you.

Yes Vista has lot's of problem's but many people will buy it just because they think that it's cool. I have seen a lot of posts here asking for help with vista. Also, it seems that some anticipated the problems and are running it as a dual boot with a Linux OS or Windows.

and they are giving out free upgrade becuase the computer companies make deals or sumthing w/microsoft
because their computer will get sold faster

Hi. Free? Don't think so. The betas were free for experimenting and feedback but Microsoft is a profit making company.

Vista pings the internet, Microsoft will always know who is on the net using their OS now. They are slowing collecting this data to take over the world.
