Well, the now-former editor-in-chief of that great citadel of Microsoft-brown-nosing PC Magazine, is now swearing off Vista. You know when Microsoft’s lackeys begin jumping ship that something is wrong. This should certainly convince anyone if the fact that most businesses are reluctant to switch to Vista or that China will use XP for computer systems relating to next year’s Olympics.
I love this quote from the Olympics tech guy at Lenovo:
“At the Olympics, we need the most reliable and stable systems.” (source)
That just says it all.
Full disclosure: I do not use nor do I plan to use Vista.
Note: I was informed the PC Mag link isn’t permanent, so I have linked to the digg article instead.

FYI - the link to PC magazine isn’t a perma-link, so it points to something different now…
BTW - Your blog is a great read. I like the range of topics - everything has been pretty interesting. And the consistency of your content is great, too - there is always something new to read. Please keep up the great work!
PS - Cool wordpress theme, too. The only thing missing is a link to the RSS feeds (luckily, I know how to get to it w/out a link because I’m a wordpress user, too…)

Hey man, thanks for the comments. :)
I have an RSS link on the left, though perhaps the text was misleading, so I changed it to “RSS Feed” to hopefully prevent future problems. I disabled the wordpress default feed links since I wanted to use feedburner.
