Page 6 of 6 Just as Symantec had to rewrite Norton Internet Security in the upcoming 2009 version to completely outclass its previous versions and promise “zero impact performance”, so is Microsoft realising that the initial Vista experience left much to be desired, and it has worked hard to improve it ever since.

Vista has come a very long way since its initial launch, and despite promises from Microsoft that the “next version” will be better, Windows 7 is so far shaping up to take what is a great OS today, Vista, and make it even better. Until then, I’m definitely enjoying the “vista”, while keeping an eye on what Apple are doing with Mac OS X and the steady improvements that Ubuntu is making. I’m happy to acknowledge that if Vista suddenly dropped off the face of the earth, I could get all my work done in Linux or Mac OS X. But seeing as I have a choice, I’m more than happy to choose and recommend Vista today, while keeping all my options open for the future that is yet to come, although as of this point, that future looks like Windows 7. Even if I did decide to get a Mac, an idea I’ve toyed with over the years, there’s no way I run one without having Vista available to dual-boot from and run virtually as desired. And Ubuntu? It still needs major work for me to ditch Windows for the Linux experience, and until that happens, which looks like it will still take quite some time, Vista is the OS for me – followed by Windows 7! |
