Anomalous Anomaly

Have you seen Microsoft’s latest act of desperation aiming to save Windows Vista?

It’s interesting to me that Microsoft has resorted to this strange act. I mean, I knew Microsoft was bleeding money, but I had no idea they were this desperate. You might wonder how this is an act of desperation. Well, Microsoft has taken several non-technically-minded people and asked them to criticize an operating system with technical flaws. As I said back in December, Windows Vista has some glaring flaws that a technically-minded person would pick up on fairly quickly. Unfortunately, all the end users see is the pretty new face, mainly the Aero Glass interface, and think it’s fantastic.

To me, it would have made much more sense to correct the technical flaws, implement the changes in Windows 7 and begin hyping it up. But of course, this isn’t really a new marketing theme, this is truly an underhanded act of desperation.

Stumble it!
