I wouldn't bother reading anything Charlie Demerjian says any more... despite having some credibility in the past he seems to be on some misguided personal crusade lately.
My comment still stands. It's not MS's or Vista's fault if you can't install it properly is it? Or maybe you were installing it on hardware that barely coped with XP?
Lately? He has had zero credibility for around 3 years now, and is an industry joke and possible one of the most unpopular amd ridiculed tech journalists in the business.
Well I don't read his articles any more unless someone links to them...
You're doing it wrong in that case.
Realistically, Vista and 7 are relatively similar in performance, they're essentially the same OS anyway.
The main difference now is that the base line of PC hardware is way up since the release of Vista.
Too many people tried installing Vista on PCs that shouldn't be running it, simply enough.
2 years on, PCs are cheaper and more powerful than they were in 2007. It's somewhat an "illusion" that 7 is so much faster than Vista, you're just comparing it to Vista on slower machines, to 7 on faster ones.
I prefer 7 of course, not due to the speed differences, the whole UI is just more user friendly in my opinion, the super bar, windows snaps and simple dragging of windows to maximise/restore makes a huge difference to me.
a number of their employees in media relations had no idea what we were talking about.
Good on you, they're garbage.

but he's right about vista though. It was the worse os i've ever used...
