I have been using computers for 30 years and pc's for the last 20. We do a lot of in-house software developemnt so I think that we are pretty savy computer wise. The interface changes to Vista were a major step backwards in in useability, and in one fell swoop wiped out the knowledge and experience that users had acquired in XP. I pay my staff to develop products for our clients, not to learn new operating systems that have no decernable benifit. If I wanted my staff to learn a new operating system I would have moved over to Unix. Needless to say, we dont allow any Vista systems into our company. And, you dont even want to get me started on Office 2007! I would say that “Getting off Track” with Vista is a very polite way of saying it.
